Things to Do in Woking
Woking is a short train ride from London and sits beside canal, common and the Surrey Hills. Here are four places that suit a daytime meeting.
The Basingstoke Canal for a flat walk
The Basingstoke Canal runs through the town, with a towpath that is flat, quiet and busy with walkers and boats at weekends. It suits a long, easy walk with a stop at a canal side cafe.

Planning a Woking day
Woking has fast trains to London Waterloo, so many people come for the day and return by rail. The canal and the town park are an easy walk from the station, and the hills need a taxi or a car, so decide before you set out.
