Leith Hill, Surrey

A short but steep 4.3 mile circular walk with some fantastic views towards the coast.

On the summit of Leith Hill is Leith Hil Tower, built in 1765 and renovated in 1864 and again in 1984.  The tower is 19.5 metres high and takes the total heightof the hill to 294 metres (a marilyn).

The walk starts from the campsite at Etherley Farm and follows a number of trails through Leith Hill Copse and Orchard Copse, passing Leith Hill PLace before crossing the road and winding through Slittens Copse.
