8 Mile Friday Hike -The Fox Way to Godalming Titanic Memorial Circular

8 miles (12.5km) following the Fox Way via lesser-known footpaths of Unstead Woods and wetlands. This area is a nature reserve famous for bird watching. The route passes the River Wey navigation and characteristic boat houses, followed by a stroll along Godalming’s riverside and Titanic memorial, after which we’ll head back via the peaceful river path, across farmland and back to the Fox way.

Your guide, Martin, is a North Downs Way Ambassador, passionate about the Surrey countryside, its history of people and places, and the importance of changes and protection in today’s times.
