There are swans with signets in season, usually two families join together with up to ten signets....

There is a crossing of The Old Woking Road B326 at a right angle bend. This is fine coming from Cobham as you can see both ways along the road, but coming the other way on the inside of the bend you can't see the cars coming and crossing here would be suicidal. The land either side of the foot bridge crossing the A3 has been churned up by heavy machinery and the Path has been obliterated, head for the bridge which is easily visible, and then head in the general direction over black sandy dunes with shredded trees and you will pick up the path. Gates, kissing gates, stiles, narrow paths and uneven surfaces make this unsuitable for wheels....

It's very calm and mostly in nature apart from the beginning and end. Can be completed by any age and doesn't take too long either....

Thereafter a short amble to Woodham Lane, and then a somewhat more narrow country path walk until you hit Woodham Park Rd....

I started my outing at Lightwater and as it happened on a similar route out of Lightwater a couple of months ago I missed the entry to woods near the end of Guildford Road. I was walking along this stretch of the route only a couple of days after rainy days and the bit between Heath-hill Farm and Deep Poole Lane leads through a narrow footpath which is borded by wired electric fences on both sides. Otherwise, a slightly modified route avoiding Heath-hill Farm could be an option....

Previous reviewers mention a short length of lane walking at Pyrford, this was no problem, good visibility and low traffic with reasonably considerate drivers. My main grumble is the road crossing of the B382 Old Woking Road, on a big bend with reduced visibility - not mentioned by the previous reviewers, I think this may be because visibility is better coming from Ripley direction....

If you follow the Hoe Stream through Old Woking cricket ground there are two stiles to climb, but you can cross the stream to join White Rose Lane earlier....

This route allows for amazing views, providing a range from the smooth green hills of the golf course to the more rural countryside....

I walked this from Woking to Addlestone on a sunny spring afternoon, with the previous day also being sunny, but with significant rain in the week before....

From here the route continues along easy going sandy/chalky paths of the fairly open Chatley Heath (photo #5), before going through some more woods to end up at a cleared space around the A3 crossing. You cross then the river Wey, before ending up on your first golf course (photo #6), with easy going (new) metalled paths. After crossing the River Way Navigation and its lock (photo #7), you then end up on your second golf course....

Derick Rethans

Pretty good, but there are some access issues near the Wisley interchange, and some minor adjustments are needed as the route isn't very accurately drawn in places. I'll propose a Wokcob 2 which fixes these issues....

This route has an advantage over Browok1, in that it has apparently been walked and recorded precisely with a .gpx file, whereas Browok1, as a succcession of straight lines, appears to have been created differently....

Going along the canal, you're able to see lots of wildlife whilst also going through a few villages. However, there are quite a few small hills that could be challenging to those who can't walk, alongside the terrain which can be very muddy outside of summertime....

Tallulah P

Almost entirely off road, flat and step free - although there are one or two points where the path is a little narrow and some mud after rain (not much). I very much enjoyed this walk on an early spring day, plenty of ducks on the water and primroses in the woods. I made this new version which is slightly amended from Browok One, and corrects a problem where it needs to be clear that the path crosses the canal....

Jane Taylor

This is a generally very good route following the Basingstoke canal towpath - but it is not drawn quite accurately enough, and at about the half way point where the towpath crosses sides, the route sent me down the wrong side of the canal, and I had to back track. I've made a new route version Browok Two which corrects this problem, and I recommend walking that one....

Jane Taylor

Hourly-ish bus service from Send to Woking or Guildford (not Sundays or bank holidays). There was one section between Send and Old Woking where the path became muddy and slippery, and there wasn’t much to hang onto for stability - I recommend walking poles and good waterproof boots/wellingtons!...

Jane Taylor

Excellent route making the most of the towpaths alongside the Basingstoke Canal and Wey navigation. Walked Addlestone to Woking, cold frosty and sunny day. Good paths underfoot, a gradual rise as the locks raise the canal level....

Jane Taylor

It can't be helped but the final mile or so into Woking isn't as pretty but I'm not sure there's a pretty way into Woking. There is a temporary issue which is right at the start you can't get to the river from the station at the moment because of works on a new bridge, however if you turn left from the station down Walnut Tree Close there is a little alley down to the river not far along....

misschappo

Excellent direct route following the Basingstoke Canal along very smooth paved towpath....

Philipj8

Good route - direct and mainly paved although the section of tow path along side the River Wey is not paved but more rough and could be a bit muddy if wet. Away from traffic and mostly very quiet pleasant walk....

Philipj8

A generally flat route following much of the River Wey/Wey Navigation towpath from Guildford Station to Woking Station....
