Time Out Walks, Book 1, Walk 12, Farnham to Godalming. 5/4/11.
A walk of around 13 miles that is dominated by the River Wey at various points; the morning section passes Moor Park House, following the Heritage Trail, then joins the Greensand Way to pass through woods to the lunch time pub at Charleshill. After lunch, it's more sandy bridleways through woods to the estate at Peper Harrow. Then, it's back along the banks of The Wey into Godalming.
A lovely walk backed up by plenty of bird song and flowers in abundance.
