I walked from Ewell to Motspur Park on a drizzly January day. From Ewell there are cut-throughs and woods leading to wide open Nonsuch Park with a cafe in the middle....

Strider

Fundamentally this is a good route so I have taken the recording of the walk I did trying to follow this one and created Ewemot3....

Strider

An urban walk mostly along a path offset from the road next to the Hogsmill River, not very scenic though. Some interesting architecture at the Ewell end....

Strider

Avoids crossing the A217 dual carriageway at Banstead crossroads (because of 60 mph limit) by using pedestrian lights at Fir Tree Road and Brighton Road to enter Banstead via The Horseshoe. Food shops in Nork Way near Banstead Station. Good shops at Banstead (M&S Food)....

Shorter than the other option between Epsom and Ewell and less greenery too but you don't miss much by taking this quicker option....

RobP

You wouldn't call it exactly picturesque (although the otherwise unnecessary loop through Nonsuch Park does add some greenery) but in general a reasonable, easy route....

RobP

I walked this route Ewell to Motspur Park in August 2024 in good daylight and weather. Basically a perfectly good route that uses as much green space as possible in this urban area....

Luke Reader

From Ewell West there is a short section along a road (photo #1, #2) and across a car park to end up at the church (photo #3)....

From Banstead village, it follows a few residential/council owned roads until Banstead station (photo #10, #9). Higher Drive was nearly deserted (photo #8), and a better option than following Banstead Road for longer (photo #7)....

Derick Rethans

West of Chessington South station, the route goes down Banwell Lane — although there is no pavement (photo #5), and it is busy, cars were driving very slowly as there are so many pot holes. Manor Road South (photo #9) is easy going, and after a short section along a road of Oaken Lane (photo #10), there is a foot path on the west to follow (photo #11)....

Derick Rethans

After crossing Horton Lane, the route goes past Hobbledown (photo #3) and through Horton Country Park was lovely (photo #4). The path there is a little muddy, but not too much (photo #7), before end up at Lower Wood Road where the route then follows residential streets of Claygate. Manor Road South (photo #9) is easy going, and after a short section along a road of Oaken Lane (photo #10), there is a foot path on the west to follow (photo #11)....

Derick Rethans

It's an easy to walk route, starting (photo #1) with some residential streets in Sutton, before following some back alley public footpaths (photo #2)....

I've added Ewemot 2 to correct the route through Nonsuch Park and the roads after Cuddington Recreation Ground. All other parts of the route the same as Ewemot 1. Toilets and café available in Nonsuch Mansion....

JohnMyerson

Aiming for Nonsuch Mansion there's a clear path across the grass....

JohnMyerson

Leave Banstead by a quiet path, cross dual carriageway at lights, and continue to Banstead station on a pleasant residential street and footpath through woods. From Priest Hill there is a long footpath direct to the Ewell bypass....

Jane Taylor

I walked Ewell to Banstead and had no problems as far as Banstead station, where there is a blind road crossing. Tbh from direction of Ewell this may not be obvious, there is a view of traffic coming round the corners; but for anyone coming from Banstead it would be very unsafe - you can’t see the cars and they can’t see you....

Jane Taylor

It's a short walk mostly along public roads with not a great deal of interest along the way apart from a wonderfully decorated post box and the modernist Bourne Hall which looks like a magnificent concrete flying saucer....

John Scott

A pretty easy going route. A fair amount of residential walking though....

LondonIn360

Along with being at great connection to the Ewell to Sutton walk, half of this route is a wonderful stroll from Ewell East station to Epsom. There’s a little bit of residential walking but mostly lovely footpaths. A small section of the London Loop also makes a cameo in Nonsuch Park....

LondonIn360

There weren't any cyclists when I was walking on the path, but since there is no real separation between pedestrians and cyclists, both would need to be quite careful sharing the path. That said, the path is pretty safe and well maintained. If I were to walk it again I might find some alternatives to vary up the long stretches of road....

Ingrina

The path through Motspur Park is really beautiful and relaxing....

Ingrina

Head up Merritt Gardens off the A243 and turn off down the path and you’ll be back on route. Few roads with no paths but nothing too dangerous....

LondonIn360

Route may inaccessible or difficult to navigate during the Winter but plenty of alternative paths can be found....

LondonIn360

Surprisingly lovely alternative route down footpaths from Cheam Village to Sutton that's much better than the main road....

LondonIn360

Shops at Esher, Horton and West Ewell....

JohnMyerson

Avoid crossing the A217 dual carriageway at Banstead crossroads because of 60 mph limit by using pedestrian lights at Fir Tree Road and Brighton Road to enter Banstead via The Horseshoe. Food shops in Nork Way near Banstead Station. Good shops at Banstead (M&S Food)....

JohnMyerson

A really lovely route to Banstead from Ewell which is a nice alternative to the London Loop. Footpaths mixed in with fairly quiet residential areas. Couple of big roads to cross over....

LondonIn360

I would avoid the Ewell bypass coming into Tolworth by heading across the wonderful Tolworth Court Farm Fields....

LondonIn360

Mainly paved route except from railway bridge to Banstead Road....

JohnMyerson

Taking the foot/cycle path from Waterloo Road (Temple Cl) is a nicer route than Temple Road. Both run parallel with each other so it won’t effect journey time....

LondonIn360

Main road crossings by pedestrian lights or Zebra Crossing....

JohnMyerson

To walk from Sutton to Epsom follow this route to Nonsuch Park then switch to Epsewe two to continue to Epsom....

JohnMyerson

There is a path off Waterloo Road that goes alongside Court Recreation Ground ( parallel to Temple Road) and finishes at Pound Lane1...

Jo P

Link to Epsom in Nonsuch Park - when coming from Sutton turn left at London LOOP signpost towards Ewell East Station....

JohnMyerson

Easy walking through parks and the banks of the river, part of the London loop. Good access and wide enough to share with cyclists. A lot of “alternative” paths so keep an eye out for the way-markers, but the river is the main guide...

RandS

Cuddington recreation ground a lovely linear park to walk through - had no idea it was there!...

KatharineBock

To avoid much of the very busy Kingston Road between Tolworth and the Hogsmill, go into the Tolworth Court Fields and follow the path parallel with the road. At Ewell, note that Bourne Hall Park is locked at dusk....

Malcolm Jones

After Cuddington Park, the route suggests there are paths between Sandringham Road, Braemar Road & Hobart Road - these are private back-alleys, not open the the public....

Malcolm Jones

You follow the Hogsmill river for most of it, crossing it a couple of times, so it’s very easy to follow. Bourne Hall Park also seems to close 30mins before sunset, so that part of the route will be inaccessible at times...

FranticTWalks

Toilets at Bourne Hall, near start, and at Epsom Library, Epsom Square, near end....
