The route follows the River Wey Navigation from Riverside Park Nature Reserve. You will pass Stoke Lock where you can watch the boats be lifted and lowered. At Dapdune Wharf, there is plenty of opportunity to recharge the batteries before the walk back with a tea room, boat rides, play area, exhibits and a second-hand bookshop.

Many families will come to California Country Park for its outstanding play area, sensory water play and seasonal paddling pool. But there is more to be discovered in the park, including lakeside walks and a hundred acres of lowland heath and bogland accessed by boardwalks.

The pretty coastal town of Lymington is a must for any family staying in the New Forest. Our walk takes you on a tour of the town from the attractive Woodside Gardens with a play area along the sea wall, to the marina and quay.

Horsell Common has a mixture of landscapes, all of which can be explored on this walk. You will find yourself crossing rivers, wetlands, meadows, woodland and sandy heath. The walk starts and finishes at Heather Farm Cafe which overlooks the wetlands. Children will love playing at the huge natural sandpit half-way around.

In May and June, the Rhododendron Wood at Leith Hill is a riot of colour and scent. Start a woodland walk here and then climb to The Tower for the best views in South-East England.

This historic parkland between Leatherhead and Dorking is a much valued place for recreational walks. Multiple trails pass through woodland, grassland and beside the river Mole, revealing fabulous views along the way.
