The first of our spring flower walks. A stunning new 15km/9mile route guided by snowdrop-hot-spots along Wotton, Abinger Roughs and Friday street.Please note: The starting point and route has now changed. The route now also includes the magical Friday Street.
Starting at Wotton near Dorking, we’ll head straight to the Wotton Church grounds with hundreds of snowdrops setting a stunning spring scene. Our walk then leads into Abinger Roughs woodland copses with Scotts and Corsican Pine with stunning views of the North Downs Way Ridge. A cute snowdrops trail leads us now south towards Abinger Hatch pub (Optional short stop) and the magical Friday street and quaint hamlet of Broadmoor with its cared-for spring flower meadows and gardens. On our way back we pass the historic Wotton House and if allowed a sneak peak into their quirky gardens.
