Walk Report

Guildford Circular, Saturday 26th May 2018
13 walkers, 22 miles - leader Nigel Heys
Thirteen people resisted the attractions of the Cinque Ports 100 and the beach on a Bank Holiday weekend to assemble at Guildford Station for a 22 mile walk in the Surrey Hills. We set out along the Wey before going through Shalford and climbing Chinthurst Hill. We continued through Bramley to climb up through Winkworth Arboretum with the azaleas in full bloom. Next we went across the slopes of Hydon's Ball to a welcome late lunch stop in the White Horse at Hascombe and/or a picnic by the pond. The sun shone all afternoon as we followed the Greensand Way for a time, then passed the Gunpowder Mills near Chilworth before climbing Pewley Down and returning to Guildford Station.
