This River Wey paddle starts at Blackboys Bridge, heads south upstream along the canal navigation to a point between Pyrford Lock and the Walsham Flood Gates where, after a quick snack and all being well, we cross over to the natural river returning north through Brooklands and back up the canal to the starting point, totalling 11.5 miles. There will be flow on the natural river which after rains can be swift in places with a risk of grounding and/or broaching/entanglement on fallen branches or trees. Paddlers should be competent manoeuvring in moving water. There is one awkward get out on the natural river.
