If you have a bit more time and want to spend more time on your walk around Guildford, then this is an extended version of the first walk.

It still enjoys everything from the first walk, but this one also heads further to the south offering a much longer stroll alongside the River Wey and a walk back through Shalford Park.

If the second walk extension doesn't do enough for you, then this is an even longer third option.

It doesn't add any real variety to the walk from the second route, but it does head even further to the south, offering even more lovely walking alongside the pretty River Wey and giving this route a more epic riverside walk feel.
