About
Olle
A curated walking trail network for England — county by county, walk by walk, stamp by stamp.
The name
A word from Jeju Island
Olle is a Jeju word: the narrow lane that leads from a village street to someone's front gate. Small-scale, personal, unhurried. The Jeju Olle Trail in South Korea built a network of these lanes into a celebrated 437km circuit that draws millions of walkers every year.
We are building the English equivalent — not a single long trail, but a growing network of county circuits, each designed for day trips from London and the city, each completable section by section over years.
How it works
Walk. Check in. Collect your stamp.
A county circuit
Surrey has 25 sections, each 10-16km. Walk them in any order. Each section starts and ends at a station or bus stop, no car required.
Checkpoints
Each section has a small number of curated checkpoints: places that genuinely reward you. Check in by GPS or photo when you're there.
Your passport
Complete a section and earn its stamp. Stamps collect in your passport — a record of everywhere you've been, building over months and years.
Olle Together
Every Sunday at 10am, there's an organised Olle walk somewhere on the network. Same idea as parkrun — free, community, rotating location.
What we believe
Slow travel, properly done
Train-first
Every section is designed around public transport. Olle is the only major walking trail network in Surrey completable without a car.
Editorial
Every route, every checkpoint, every description is authored. Not crowdsourced. Curated to show you what actually rewards the walk.
Long-form
Olle is built for years, not days. A passport you fill gradually. A network that grows as your curiosity does.
Community
Olle Together brings walkers to the same section every Sunday. Tag companions. Share stamps. Walk the same ground together.
