I've copped a spider web to the face on more than one occasion. Golden Orb spiders love to set up at face height on trails... My approach is to sort of brush across my face/hair with my hand and then try to flick what I've gathered in one motion. If that motion fails I proceed to roll on the ground violently flailing my limbs about. At least with golden orbs you can see them from a distance as they are quite large. Smaller spiders tend to fall on you from time to time but if your calm you can coax them onto a stick and they'll go on their merry way.
