After a long and sweaty hike, what a nice feeling to take a dip in the cold water to cool off. Whilst it might be easy for those leaving in places such as Dartmoor or the Lake District to find some pools of clear water, for us leaving in London it is much more challenging. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Even though you can find some wild swimming places in London such as Hampstead Heath or the Serpentine Lido in Hyde Park, bathing in the middle of a busy recreation ground defeats the purpose of the word &#8220;wild&#8221;. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">So if you are based in London or the surrounding areas and you are looking for a spot where you can go wild swimming, the Silent Pool is an ideal location. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\"><em>Disclaimer 1: When I visited the Silent Pool it had dried up due to a prolonged period of heat.

Settled during the Mesolithic as shown by the evidence of human activity in the region, the city developed during the medieval age thanks to the wool trade. The popularity of the navigation from the River Wey to the Thames in London followed by the expansion of the railway in the 1840s contributed to the economic growth of Guildford. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-background\" style=\"background-color:#6dbd2254\">Contenu connexe : <a href=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/fr\/gomshall-to-guildford-walk\/\">Gomshall to Guildford Walk<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"is-style-columns wp-block-jetpack-tiled-gallery aligncenter\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__gallery\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__row\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:42.84956%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-Guilford-2.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=500&#038;ssl=1 500w\" alt=\"White painted wall houses in Guilford\" data-height=\"800\" data-id=\"5453\" data-link=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/?attachment_id=5453\" data-url=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-Guilford-2.jpg\" data-width=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-Guilford-2.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\"\/><\/figure><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-Guilford-1024x536.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=600&#038;ssl=1 600w,https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-Guilford-1024x536.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=900&#038;ssl=1 900w,https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-Guilford-1024x536.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1200&#038;ssl=1 1200w\" alt=\"Brick wall and stone gate near Guilford Castle\" data-height=\"628\" data-id=\"5475\" data-link=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/?attachment_id=5475\" data-url=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-Guilford-1024x536.jpg\" data-width=\"1200\" src=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-Guilford-1024x536.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\"\/><\/figure><\/div><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:57.15044%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-Guilford-3.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=500&#038;ssl=1 500w\" alt=\"Church on the corner of a street in Guilford\" data-height=\"800\" data-id=\"5452\" data-link=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/?attachment_id=5452\" data-url=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-Guilford-3.jpg\" data-width=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-Guilford-3.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\"\/><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Guildford is surrounded on its west, east and south sides by the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.surreyhills.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Surrey Hills<\/a>, an Area of Outstanding Beauty, where we are going on this walk. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">This hike starts at the Guildford train station. From there, make your way towards Guildford Castle. It is unsure when the palace was first erected, but it was possibly a motte and bailey castle from the times of the Norman Conquest. It was only in the middle of the twelfth century that Henry III commissioned the rebuilding of the castle following a fire and turned it into a royal residence. The place in ruins was bought in 1885 by the borough and opened to the public for the first time 3 years later. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"is-style-rectangular wp-block-jetpack-tiled-gallery aligncenter\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__gallery\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__row\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:75.25839%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-Guilford-Castle-1024x536.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=600&#038;ssl=1 600w,https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-Guilford-Castle-1024x536.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=900&#038;ssl=1 900w,https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-Guilford-Castle-1024x536.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1200&#038;ssl=1 1200w\" alt=\"Orange and green flower bed by a wall in ruins\" data-height=\"628\" data-id=\"5476\" data-link=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/?attachment_id=5476\" data-url=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-Guilford-Castle-1024x536.jpg\" data-width=\"1200\" src=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-Guilford-Castle-1024x536.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\"\/><\/figure><\/div><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:24.74161%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-Guilford-Castle-3.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=500&#038;ssl=1 500w\" alt=\"Silent Pool Walk -

This was the case when I visited the place.  However, when the spring is at its normal level of water, it is an ideal spot for wild swimming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"is-style-columns wp-block-jetpack-tiled-gallery aligncenter\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__gallery\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__row\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:100.00000%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-featured-1024x536.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=600&#038;ssl=1 600w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-featured-1024x536.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=900&#038;ssl=1 900w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-featured-1024x536.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1200&#038;ssl=1 1200w\" alt=\"Silent Pool Walk - The water of the Silent Pool reflecting the green leaves trees around\" data-height=\"628\" data-id=\"5483\" data-link=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/?attachment_id=5483\" data-url=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-featured-1024x536.jpg\" data-width=\"1200\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-featured-1024x536.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\"\/><\/figure><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-the-silent-pool.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=600&#038;ssl=1 600w,https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-the-silent-pool.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=837&#038;ssl=1 837w\" alt=\"Silent Pool Walk - the green see through water of the silent pool bordered by naked trees in winter\" data-height=\"628\" data-id=\"5448\" data-link=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/?attachment_id=5448\" data-url=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-the-silent-pool.jpg\" data-width=\"837\" src=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-the-silent-pool.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\"\/><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">The water from the Silent Pool is used for the manufacturing of the <a href=\"https:\/\/silentpooldistillers.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Silent Pool Gin<\/a> by the distillery behind the spring. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"536\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-Silent-Pool-Distillery.jpg?resize=1024%2C536&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Silent Pool Walk - Silent Pool Distillery on the other side of the pound\" class=\"wp-image-5469\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-Silent-Pool-Distillery.jpg?resize=1024%2C536&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-Silent-Pool-Distillery.jpg?resize=300%2C157&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-Silent-Pool-Distillery.jpg?resize=768%2C402&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-Silent-Pool-Distillery.jpg?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">The spring is also known for its folklore and legends, one of which is that King John drowned the daughter of a woodcutter in the pound and her ghost can be seen at night.

Following the geography of the terrain, this route was taken by pilgrims wanting to get to Canterbury to see Thomas Beckett&#8217;s shrine. Former Archbishop of Canterbury, Thomas Beckett was murdered in 1170 by four knights following the orders of King Henry the Young.  Thomas was canonised in 1173 by Pope Alexander III and was thereafter venerated as a saint and a martyr. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">The current name of the Pilgrim&#8217;s Way was given by Ordnance Survey surveyor Edward Renouard James in 1871. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"is-style-columns wp-block-jetpack-tiled-gallery aligncenter\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__gallery\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__row\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:100.00000%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-Newlands-Corner-1024x536.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=600&#038;ssl=1 600w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-Newlands-Corner-1024x536.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=900&#038;ssl=1 900w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-Newlands-Corner-1024x536.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1200&#038;ssl=1 1200w\" alt=\"Silent Pool Walk - 2 trees in the middle of the fields in Newlands Corner\" data-height=\"628\" data-id=\"5482\" data-link=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/?attachment_id=5482\" data-url=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-Newlands-Corner-1024x536.jpg\" data-width=\"1200\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-Newlands-Corner-1024x536.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\"\/><\/figure><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-Newlands-Corner-2-1024x536.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=600&#038;ssl=1 600w,https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-Newlands-Corner-2-1024x536.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=900&#038;ssl=1 900w,https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-Newlands-Corner-2-1024x536.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1200&#038;ssl=1 1200w\" alt=\"Silent Pool Walk - Newlands Corner view from the bottom with yellow farmlands\" data-height=\"628\" data-id=\"5481\" data-link=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/?attachment_id=5481\" data-url=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-Newlands-Corner-2-1024x536.jpg\" data-width=\"1200\" src=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Silent-Pool-Walk-Newlands-Corner-2-1024x536.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\"\/><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">As you walk alongside the Pilgrim&#8217;s Way, you pass by Newlands Corner, but this time on the opposite side.
