What are you favourite walking areas in Surrey?
Mine has to be Leith hill, I love walking up to the tower. I also like winterfold near Cranleigh, the views are breathtaking.

Richmond Park (We walked across from Isabella Plantation to Pembroke Lodge the other day - fantastic views including a cut away to St.Pauls and they do a nice cup of coffee). The tow path from Hampton Court to Kingston, and from Surbiton to Kingston, and from Kingston to Richmond.

When we lived in Surrey my favourite Sunday afternoon walk was from Newlands Corner, down to the ' Silent Pool ' in Shere. When the kids were young, we used to picnic at ' Newlands Corner ' beauty spot situated just outside Guildford, on the Dorking Rd. Eat our goodies, have a mess around with kites and the odd game of footie, then amble down the hill into Shere village.....look around the art and craft shops, then make our way back up the hill to the Silent Pool.
This beautiful lake is shrouded in legends of murder, rape, and ghost stories...of prince regents and eerie goings on.....have a gander at this link.

I have visited silent pool many times, I love it because of its mysterious feel. Unfortunately last year because of the drought the pool was completely dry, but I would imagine after the weather we've had recently it will be back to its best.

Esher Commonis interesting - I like the Black Pond which is a bit creepy really.
Here are some walks in the Borough of Elmbridge [link= http://www.elmbridge.gov.uk/events/ ]http://www.elmbridge.gov.uk/events/[/link]
