A unique photography stroll along Broadwater lake and the River Wey capturing winter and wildlife scenes.
Join us for an winter themed stroll around the peaceful setting of Broadwater lake near Godalming, whilst learning some new photography skills. The lake offers fantastic opportunities to capture wildlife, such as Swans, Ducks, Geese and more. Our Co-host Richard is a local Wildlife photographer and has developed a unique bond with wildlife around this lake and shares with us the best photo opportunies there.
Only a few strides away, we will then visit the river Wey stretching along riverbanks and farmland, giving us many opportunities for wildlife and wintery landscapes.
The walk is suitable for hiking beginners as its slow paced but the river path can be muddy.
