Walk information
The second option is a lovely short family-friendly walk that all ages can enjoy.
The walk takes you on the short loop to the Memorial viewpoint like the first route, but then it heads up into the woodlands of the Box Hill Country Park and enjoys the 'Nature Play Trail' route.
Walk information
The third route is a slightly longer walk where things get a little bit more strenuous and adventurous.
The walk also enjoys the Salomons Memorial viewpoint and the Nature Play Trail, but then it heads off on a hilly adventure towards the River Mole where you'll eventually find the stepping stones across the river.
You don't have to actually cross the river on the stones as part of the route, but the kids will no doubt want to play here for a while. The hills on the route are very steep though at times, so it might not be suitable for some walkers.
There is also a cafe about half way around the route for refreshments if you need!
Refreshments:
Rykas Cafe, Old London Road
Walk information
The final route option is for the more serious walkers who really want to stretch their legs and explore as much of the Box Hill Country Park as they can in one walk.
The walk starts by taking you to the lovely viewpoint at the Salomons Memorial viewpoint, and then after that you head off on a long and very hilly walk around the hills and woodlands of Box Hill, passing through Headley Heath as you go and enjoying the viewpoints there.
The walk also calls into the village of Mickleham about two thirds of the way around the adventure and you'll find a lovely pub there for well earned refreshments.
Refreshments:
The King William IV, Mickleham
The Running Horses, Mickleham
