Brisk Morning Walks give 90 minutes of brisk exercise (3 miles) enabling participants to get back home well before lunch. (11.35 if you don't stop for coffee). Most of the group stay to extend their chats over coffee.
Start points are not more than 20 minutes' drive but usually most are about 10 minutes away from Bookham. Locations have included Mole Valley Gap, Denbies Hillside, Ranmore Common, Box Hill, Ripley, Sheep Lees, East and West Horsley, Norbury Park and West Humble. Where possible walks are on firm ground making an effort to avoid muddy places. Sometimes steep climbs are required but most walks are either flat or limited climbs.
2026 - May's walk (led by Howard Hills) starts in East Horsley and June's walk (led by Malcolm Tyrell) starts at Polesden Lacy. Future walks include Hatchlands and Bookham Common.
