Surrey
The cows in Surrey are gaily coloured.
Tea and cakes at the end of the walk!
Welcome to the GOC Surrey Homepage:
GOC Surrey had its 1st walk on 29th January 1995 and has walked on the 4th Sunday of each month since.
We usually have over thirty men and women turn up, so you are sure to find someone to share the beautiful Surrey views with and plenty of interesting conversation. If you rely on public transport then a brief message posted on the event page normally ensures that you have a lift from a convenient train station. Our walks are predominantly circular between 8 – 12 miles long. Lunch is a packed lunch and we always end the walk with a hot drink and home baked cake brought in by some members (if Mrs Beeton were alive, she could judge the competitive cake makers).
We are a friendly group of people and always welcome new members. Coming along to your first event can be a daunting prospect but don’t let that stop you as many of us attended on our own and love to mix with whoever turns up. GOC has a try before you buy approach where you attend 3 events before you need to join up to receive event details. To get details of any walks you would like to try please contact Gordon Pullenger.
Most importantly of all; the Surrey group is your group and suggestions on events you’d like to see or thoughts of how the group can progress are always welcome.
The Coordinator for GOC Surrey is Gordon Pullenger and he can be contacted here

A circular tour of Leith Hill
Some of you may have been deterred from coming on the walk this Sunday, but as is often the case, the forecast was not entirely accurate. Although we had a few spots of rain (not worth donning a waterproof) we had a good mix of sun and cloud and the cool temperatures were ideal for walking....
Isle of Purbeck weekend
The sun shone the whole weekend so sunscreen and hats were the essential accessories for our couple of days in Purbeck.
On Saturday Richard led us on a circular walk which included part of the coastal path with cliff top paths and some amazingly steep climbs and descents....
Up, Down and Around Farnham
In January 2014 GOC Surrey walked in the area of Caesars’ Camp and it rained all the day, you can remind yourself of the weather here. At the time we could all see that it had the potential for a splendid walk in finer weather.

9.5 mile circular walk through the Surrey Weald
