The walk is a variation on that done on 29th February 2016 to extend beyond the youth hostel towards Holmbury St Mary, taking a path that skirts the outside of the village along a hillside. This avoids any steep downhills and uphill later on when picking up the route to Holmbury Hill (857 ft, 261m)  from which you can get a glimpse of London if conditions permit. A view of London was just visible today.

Holmbury St Mary is located just south of Dorking, and is named after the hill and the church within the locality. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holmbury_St_Mary
