Farley Heath & Albury Heath: 5.5 miles with homemade pumpkin & maple cake

Finally, we're back with our wonderful walks in the Surrey Hills! We've missed you all, the fresh air and the walking. Please note a different start time from usual: 11am.

We'd love to see you for a peaceful circular country walk through Farley Heath and Albury Heath. The walk is through woodlands, open pastures and heathland, taking in pretty farm cottages along the way.

Newbies and regulars will be made to feel very welcome in this chatty, friendly group, as always.

Ascents and descents are mainly gradual with a couple of very short steep parts to negotiate.

Underfoot is mostly sandy or dry woodland and quiet country tracks, though walking boots are always recommended at this time of year in the muddy countryside!

Meeting at the free Farley Glade car park (Hurtwood Control No.15) approximate postcode GU5 9DN, or, better still, I highly recommend the What3Words app for a more accurate pinpoint, W3W demand.superhero.splat, for prompt 11am start.

Please wear suitable clothing and footwear for countryside, hills and changeable weather.

You'll need to bring sufficient water for hydration and/or flask of hot drink to accompany the homemade pumpkin and maple cake, for our midway cake break.

We'll be expecting to finish the walk at around 1.30/1.45pm.

Attendees are responsible for their own safety at all times.

Please pay in advance by PayPal, to reserve your place. As refunds cannot be given (unless in the unlikely event it's cancelled) a credit will be given against a future walk only if you let me know of your change of plans before the RSVP cut off 8pm the day before the walk

No dogs please
