Map of M25 Junction 8 Walk

Leaving the car park, Banstead Heath is to your right.

There are waymarked paths here, and the area is very popular with riders and walkers alike.

Banstead Heath is part of the extensive Banstead Downs, and forms part of the green ‘lung' around London . There is a mixture of open heath and woodland, and generally flat walking. There is so much space that the Heath is a delight to ramble around, and no directions are necessary.
