Gay Men's Surrey Hills Hike with The Hiking Gays

**Fresh Air. Good Company. Proper Hills.** Join Nick from @hikinggays26 for a full day out of the city , the Surrey Hills, done properly. We'll walk from Leatherhead to Box Hill, taking in the climbs, the views, and each other's company along the way. Meet at London Victoria @ 9am for the 09:41 to Leatherhead (arriving 10:32), then it's about 3.5 hours on foot at a comfortable \~4km/h pace, finishing at Box Hill & Westhumble station around 3:30–4pm. Expect a moderate route with some proper hilly climbs and descents , bring walking boots or hiking trainers, a waterproof jacket, and thermal layers, and check the forecast the night before since Surrey weather has a mind of its own. Pack your lunch and at least 2 litres of water. Trains cost around £16 without a railcard, or £11 with a Network Railcard. As this is an outdoor activity with some physical exertion involved, all participants will need to sign a waiver before joining the hike. This will be sent ahead of the day and takes two minutes to complete. But like all Friend of Dorothy events, this isn't just about the hike. It's about creating spaces where gay, bi, trans, non-binary and queer people can meet, talk and form real connections outside of apps and bars. Hours of walking side by side is one of the easiest ways there is to actually get to know someone, no headphones, no distractions, just conversation and the hills.
