2) Heading in the opposite direction (to walk 1), simply follow the pink waymarks for a circular walk around Glatting Beacon. Whilst offering good views in places, they are somewhat obstructed by woodland on the north side of the circuit.
Please keep dogs on a lead where grazing animals are present.
