Friday 8th June

After Work Walk 3 - Wind down after the working week with a gentle walk along
the Wey and Godalming navigation.  This picturesque route through the Surrey
countryside is nice and short with no hills to climb (only to look at). There
are no planned breaks so we will be stopping only to talk pictures and admire the scenery. Option to stay afterwards for drinks in the George Abbot pub.
As this is an evening walk it is advisable to bring a head torch even though we plan
to be finished before dark
