Shalford, River Wey and the Chantry Woods
A beautiful route that starts in Shalford on the village green and ventures down the River Wey joining the North Downs Way at the footbridge over the river. From there you follow the national trail for around a kilometer before climbing into the Chantry Woods and eventually returning to the start via Shalford Mill.
