Surrey Hills & Mole Valley – Members hike
The Nature Kicks Hiker’s Club had an absolutely fantastic day out in the stunning Surrey Hills and the Mole Valley the past weekend. Although a few members couldn’t join us, the day was filled with incredible fun, great camaraderie and unforgettable moments.
The weather was perfect—some rain showers, but mostly clear skies and a gentle breeze made for ideal hiking conditions. As we set out on the 9-mile route along the undulated hills, we were immediately captivated by the breathtaking views that Surrey Hills and the Mole Valley are known for.

The landscape offered a delightful mix of lush woodlands, open meadows, nature reserves, a stepping-stone river crossing and picturesque hills. Each step presented a new perspective, revealing a different aspect of nature’s beauty. It was a truly inspiring sight.
The trails were both invigorating and challenging, catering to hikers of all skill levels. Some parts demanded a bit more effort, but the sense of accomplishment upon reaching the hilltop was well worth it.
The scenery from the higher vantage points was simply spectacular, with rolling hills stretching as far as the eye could see. It was a moment of pride for all of us.

Throughout the hike, the group was in high spirits. We shared laughter and stories, forging stronger connections with one another. These moments of bonding truly enhance the hiking experience. Every hike strengthens our appreciation for nature and deepens our friendships.
One of the highlights was a peaceful, short break in a sun-dappled meadow where we enjoyed food and energy bars. Surrounded by the sounds of nature, we took the time to relax and soak in the serenity of our surroundings.
We also celebrated a member’s birthday with delicious blueberry cupcakes. It was a perfect moment to reflect on the beauty of the day and the joy of being part of such an enthusiastic and supportive group of hikers.
