Most of the activity at Walton & Weybridge Regatta centres around the club house of Walton Rowing Club. This is located in Sunbury Lane, Walton-on-Thames, Surrey. KT12 2JA. The whole course can be viewed from the tow path on the Surrey bank of the Thames: from the start up-stream of The Anglers and The Swan public houses down to the finish near Walton Rowing Club. The Regatta Enclosure is on the small area of park at the rear of Miskin's Wharf just up-stream of Walton Rowing Club. The Regatta Enclosure includes refreshment and bar tents. The view from the Enclosure is straight up the course and spectators have a good view of racing from start to finish. Parking: Sunbury Lane is closed to spectator traffic, but ample public car parking is available at Cowey Sale, near Walton Bridge. This is a pleasant two hundred metre walk along the tow path to the start of the regatta. Parking is available at the Dudley Road Recreation Ground just upstream from Walton Rowing Club for a small charge.
