As promised I'm doing my walk of the year once again. Starting at Farnham station we will make our way through Farnham town centre via East street, Hale road and Monkton lane until we eventually make our way over to squires cafe bar Badshot Lea for coffee and cake and not forgetting my speciality chocolate fudge cake.
After the refreshments we will make our way over to Rowhill copse and the source of the river Blackwater. As the river Blackwater flows downstream it gains water from its tributaries including Cove Brook and the river white water. Continuing northwards it joins the river Loddon which in turn flows into the river Thames. After crossing Farnborough road we shall make our way over to skirmishing hill where we can stop for lunch. (During the Recce I found the perfect lunch spot with 20 stone seats under the trees). After lunch we shall make our way over to Steep hill, Water works and sandpit hill where we shall then reach a pond at Bricksbury hill which is lovely when the sun is out. After crossing the A 3016 we shall then make our way over to Farnham castle having passed the old stables where there's an option to look round the castle itself where there are amazing views of Farnham and Hampshire. After that we shall then make are way back into Farnham and the station. Option to go to the Mulberry pub just outside the station for drinks after.
Please bring a pack lunch with you.
