Chiddingfold Forest is a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) in south west Surrey and west Sussex. It lies near Chiddingfold and Dunsfold. The Forestry Commission owns and/or manages some 830 hectares of woodland in the forest complex of which 543.9 hectares is designated SSSI. The site lies within the Low Weald natural area and Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB).
The rare pearl-bordered fritillary grows in the forest. This is an important butterfly egg-laying area. There are also rare moths in this locality including: the Argent & Sable, Common Fan-foot, White-line snout, Waved carpet and Drab looper moth.
Chiddingfold Forest is home to the Bechstein's Bat. Three maternity colonies have been identified which have at least eighty breeding females.
Fir Tree Copse, which lies within the forest is particularly noted for rare moths, lichen and fungi.

The Wey and Arun Canal is a 23-mile-long canal in the south of England, between the River Wey at Shalford, Surrey and the River Arun at Pallingham, in West Sussex.
Passing through a rural landscape, there was little freight traffic to justify its continued existence, and the canal was officially abandoned in 1871.
Without maintenance, the canal gradually became derelict over much of its length. However, since 1970, active restoration by The Wey & Arun Canal Trust has resulted in several miles of the waterway being restored to navigable standard. Work is continuing, with the ultimate aim of re-opening the entire canal to navigation.

A 36 mile path from Millmead Lock, Guildford to Amberley in West Sussex. The Path follows the towpath of the Godalming Navigation along the River Wey to its confluence with the Wey & Arun Junction Canal, crossing the North Downs Way National Trail near the start. Wherever possible the route follows the towpath, supplemented by paths, roads and disused railway (Downs Link), to reach and continue beside the Arun Navigation to the River Arun whence the path continues to meet the South Downs Way National Trail above Amberley. Several sections of the canals have been restored. The canals were originally built for military purposes to provide a waterway linking the Thames and the south coast, but were soon supplanted by the railways and some sections fell into disrepair.
