Southease to Monk's House Circular Walk, Monks House

For Virginia Woolf, writing & walking were inseparable; she made her stories as she walked. Virginia & Leonard lived at Monk's House from 1919, where she walked for 2hrs+ daily. This walk takes you to places they loved. Paths can be muddy & wet in winter

Covering 6.3 km, this is a satisfying walk that most reasonably fit hikers will complete in about 1 hour and 24 minutes.

With start and finish just a short distance apart, this near-loop trail offers most of the convenience of a circular route with a subtly different final stretch.

Part of the Local Walking Network (LWN), this trail is ideal for exploring the neighbourhood landscape. It is typically well-known to local walkers and offers an authentic sense of place.
