A long Wey to go

Following 'London's Lost Route to the Sea'

The Wey-South Path is a 34-mile (55km) long route along the Wey and Arun Canal, starting in Guildford in the North and finishing in Amberley in the South. The route mostly runs along the towpaths of the Wey and Arun Junction Canal, connecting the North Downs Way to the South Downs Way.
