Join us for a beautiful 11km circular walk through the historic Polesden Lacey estate, a 1400-acre National Trust landscape set high above the Surrey Hills.
With roots dating back to Roman times, this area offers sweeping views, rolling downland and ancient woodland. (We won’t be going into the house).
We’ll also explore Ranmore Common, a designated Site of Special Scientific Interest, rich in wildlife and peaceful woodland trails. A varied and scenic walk combining history, nature and far-reaching views from Denbies Hillside. Afterwards, enjoy refreshments from Cafe La Creme, a lovely family-run mobile coffee van.
