The Dabbling Duck Shere and Peaslake
Trail The walking route follows long stretches of beautiful ancient lanes which criss-cross this area of the Surrey Hills. You'll pass through sections of heath and woodland with the opportunity to see plenty of wildlife and enjoy views across the landscape. The walk has many fairly gentle climbs and descents throughout plus just a couple of short, more challenging gradients. The vast majority of the route follows ancient lanes which are fairly wide, but are rocky and uneven, and can be muddy in winter. There are no stiles on route, just a handful of gates including one kissing gate. Lunch in Peaslake (options of pub or tea from village shop) and tea shop in Shere ¾ miles before the end of the walk. Starting Point This walk will be led by Robin - contact details. |
