Walk description

One of the finest sections of the Capital Ring with glorious scenery enjoying some of London’s most beautiful green spaces.

This is one of the longer sections of the Capital Ring, with some quite long and steep ups and downs, mainly on rough tracks or paths and grass.

The walk goes through Wimbledon Park, Wimbledon Common and past Wimbledon Windmill, before going through Richmond Park, London’s largest national nature reserve. It also takes in Petersham Meadows, famous in the paintings of Turner.

There are cafes and toilets along the walk.
