    After a 3 month hiatus, due mainly to poor weather and the continuing train strikes, this was a decent return to the Great Outdoors. Today's 9.5 mile walk is in the Surrey Hills, but still within TFL's Zone 6. It was a mild, mainly overcast day, with a westerly breeze. Overnight rain meant some muddy paths, though nothing too bad.

    The initial terrain was the ancient woodlands of Banstead Woods, with its oak 'compass timber' history and more recent 'Narnia' sculptures. Then, it's across parkland to the recommended lunch-time pub stop in Mugswell, though this walker, in the absence of a church on this walk, chose a woodland setting.

    This walker also chose to reverse the country lane section thereafter (possibly to the walk author's original plan?) to avoid any fast cars, and that worked!

    There's some further woodland walking through the 'Long Plantation', the crossing of some farmland and tracks before arriving at a large, abandoned office block. The station is reached shortly after.

    A good walk at any time of the time of the year, though school-holidays might be busy. Potential for Bluebells in places.

    Another nice hike downloaded from The Saturday Walkers Club. Around 16KM hike from Chipstead to Kingswood, all in Surrey. Reasonably demanding hike made harder by the high temperatures. Lots of walking through forests and trails.

    Shot with GoPro Hero 5 Black mounted on GoPro Karma gimbal, Samsung Galaxy S9+ and DJI SPark Drone. Edited with Cyberlink Power Director for Android.
