Welcome to Godalming Yompers

This is the first article on what we hope will become a vibrant interactive forum for like-minded people wanting to enjoy the largely hidden pleasures of walking in Godalming and the surrounding Surrey splendour.

Who are we? Andy & Gill Morris, Godalmingoes (Godalmingers?) now for more than 10 years.

Do we like walking? Erm...a little, yes. Recently returned from a short stroll up Kilimanjaro, we've enjoyed many local walks over the last few years, as well as yomping holidays further afield in the Spanish Pyrenees, Canadian Rockies, Italian Dolomites, Spanish Asturias, and Corsica.

Check out our Kilimanjaro Blog here to give you a clue that we usually like slightly more strenuous activity than a leisurely stroll. Although a leisurely stroll has its place, of course. We generally like to step out at an energetic 3 miles an hour to keep the blood pumping round our ageing bodies...before collapsing in a heap somewhere with a picnic or hugging a pint.

Watch this Blog unfold before your very eyes to reveal a feast of invigorating, stunning and just plain fun walks in Surrey and slightly further afield....
