Embark on the Box Hill Stepping Stones Walk, an easy 2.0 miles (3.2 km) hike that takes about 1 hour and 2 minutes to complete, gaining 477 feet (145 metres). You will wander through flourishing woodlands, home to ancient box trees, and follow peaceful paths alongside the River Mole. The iconic Stepping Stones offer a picturesque spot to pause, and you can enjoy panoramic vistas across the Surrey Hills from viewpoints like Salomons Memorial. Keep an eye out for local wildlife, including squirrels and deer, as you explore this popular route.
While the trail is rated easy, be prepared for the 275 steps leading down to the River Mole, which can be a physical challenge. Pathways can become slippery, especially in wet or wintry weather, so sturdy walking boots are highly recommended for your comfort and safety. If river levels are high, a convenient footbridge is available near the Stepping Stones, providing an alternative crossing option.
This route is nestled within the beautiful Surrey Hills National Landscape, showcasing a diverse natural environment. The presence of ancient box trees adds a unique botanical element to the woodland sections. The trail's blend of riverside tranquility, elevated views, and the distinctive Stepping Stones makes it a memorable and accessible outdoor adventure for anyone looking to connect with nature.
