What it's like

A good-sized park of about 48 acres, with 3.3 miles of paths. There's a pond and a canal. It's usually firm underfoot: the ground is mostly sandy soil that drains quickly. Most of it is woodland, so there's plenty of shade. A main road runs close to one edge. There are several car parks on or near it. Woking Borough Council lists it as a SANG, a green space set aside for dog walkers.

You're responsible for your dog. Before you let it off the lead, read the signs at the entrance, look out for livestock and roads, and make sure it will come back when called.
