The Society has been instrumental in creating the first two walks below.
Aspects of Weybridge – a walk taking in a fine selection of points of interest all over Weybridge
Walk to Brooklands – a pedestrian and cycle path from Weybridge station to Brooklands
Elmbridge Borough Council have produced information sheets for two local self-guided walks;
1. Broadwater Lake and Desborough Island Walks
The Broadwater walk opened to the public in 2017 after years of lobbying by local people and councillors. More information about the lake is available from the Broadwater Conservation Society – www.broadwaterconservationsociety.co.uk
Explore Surrey has a longer walk exploring areas around Weybridge
Weybridge Locks and Levels
Alltrails has numerous walks for Weybridge
Explore the Thames at Weybridge – There are two car parks by the river, a small one at ‘Weybridge Point’ where Thames Street becomes Walton Lane, and the other larger one a few hundred metres along on Walton Lane on the left. From Weybridge Point car park walk east along the towpath past the private D’Oyly Carte Island and then take the bridge up and explore around Desborough Island. Come back to Weybridge Point and look across to the foaming water of the weir at Shepperton Lock. Perhaps call for the ferry and go and visit Shepperton lock on the other side.
Return south towards Weybridge and have refreshments at the Old Crown pub, a traditional venue where you can sit in their garden by the River Wey.
Weybridge Heath – The heath is split into various sections. The most interesting part to walk in is on the East side of Cobbetts Hill, south of the railway. This is the only part still having some classic heathland terrain with heather, bracken and gorse.
Brooklands Wood – this was opened in 2025 and is 12 hectares of woodland accessible for public use as part of the planning conditions for the building of new homes in the original grounds of Brooklands Technical College. It is accessible from a footpath off Old Heath Road by the Station North Car Park and also from the main College entrance road on the left where the new houses start.
Explore Chertsey Meads – Taking the Weybridge Road going west out of the town and over the bridge, on the right is Hamm Court. Walk along this small road until on the left is a public footpath leading onto Chertsey Meads. This is a huge expanse of open land criss-crossed with footpaths. Heading northwards takes you up to and along the Thames and eventually you can come out at Chertsey Bridge. On the Meads, you may often see both roe deer and fallow deer.
