Molesey Heath Nature Reserve from Hersham Station

Starting from Hersham Station, this 6.7km route in London (actually Surrey, but near London, so often grouped with it) offers a pleasant blend of urban convenience and natural beauty. The initial stretch along main roads quickly gives way to the tranquil Molesey Heath Nature Reserve. Here, you'll find predominantly dirt and gravel paths, perfect for runners seeking a softer surface and a peaceful escape amidst natural surroundings, with potential for wildlife spotting.
