Brentford to Hanwell Canal
↔8.35 km ↗+20 m ↘-10 m ◔2h 25 ▲Easy
⚑Departure from London Borough of Hounslow (Greater London)

The Brentford to Hanwell canal walk is a gentle stroll perfect for a quiet day out in London to escape the hustle and bustle of the city. Accessible by train on the TFL network, this Oyster Card-friendly ramble takes you to the Grand Union Canal towpath, from a seventeenth-century manor house to a viaduct. There is so much to discover on our doorsteps!

Walking Horsenden Hill

Walker
Horsenden Hill
↔3.99 km ↗+49 m ↘-48 m ◔1h 15 ▲Easy
⚑Departure from London Borough of Ealing (Greater London)

The good thing about London is that you do not need to go far to track down some exceptionally decent walks. Take Horsenden Hill for instance: who would have thought that you could walk through meadows, a farm, a forest and along a Canal, all within a London postcode and accessible by tube? And you can! A walk through Horsenden Hill will definitely make you forget you are in the city.

Walking Richmond's Green Trail - Barnes to Hampton

Association or club
↔25.99 km ↗+45 m ↘-34 m ◔7h 35 ▲Moderate
⚑Departure from London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham (Greater London)

This last walk describes a route from one end of the Borough of Richmond-upon-Thames to the other. It traverses many of the borough's parks and commons and shows how they can be linked by footpaths to form an impressive 15-mile country-style walk we proudly present as "Richmond's Green Trail".

Walking Barnes Common, riverside and nature reserve

Association or club
↔6.65 km ↗+10 m ↘-10 m ◔1h 55 ▲Easy
⚑Departure from London Borough of Richmond upon Thames (Greater London)

This walk has as its focal point the Leg o’ Mutton Nature Reserve (Formally Leg o’ Mutton" reservoir). The walk uses some of the intriguing network of paved footpaths lined with small terraced houses and cottages, which is characteristic of this part of Barnes and Mortlake. Next the Flood Wall Walkway provides excellent river views and leads on to the towpath. The return via pond, green and Mill Hill gives a taste of the village aspect of Barnes, also of the rural scenery of the Common.

Walking Barnes to Richmond along the Thames Path

Walker
↔9.94 km ↗+8 m ↘-8 m ◔2h 50 ▲Easy
⚑Departure from London Borough of Richmond upon Thames (Greater London)

The Thames Path provides easy walking and interesting surroundings. The section from Barnes to Richmond covered by this walk also includes the option to Visit Kew Gardens and enjoy the riverside 'attractions' at Richmond.

Walking The Thames Path from Putney to Barnes

Walker
↔6.24 km ↗+4 m ↘-7 m ◔1h 50 ▲Easy
⚑Departure from London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham (Greater London)

Walking Sudbury Hill

Walker
↔6.24 km ↗+58 m ↘-58 m ◔1h 55 ▲Moderate
⚑Departure from London Borough of Harrow (Greater London)

This is a short urban walk exploring the 'lost landscapes of Middlesex'. I was recently introduced to a secret park which I never knew about, and realised this must be the summit of the original Sudbury Hill before it was swallowed up under the tide of suburban housing. The walk visits Elm Park and also takes you past the Harrow School sports fields. It starts and finishes near Harrow School, Harrow-on-the-Hill.

Walking Richmond Park, Ladderstile and Wimbledon Common

Association or club
↔10.99 km ↗+78 m ↘-78 m ◔3h 20 ▲Easy
⚑Departure from London Borough of Richmond upon Thames (Greater London)

The walk connects Richmond Park with Wimbledon Common by two different routes, over varied terrain and with a wide range of views without any retracing of steps. It includes some of the best-loved features of the Park and Common, such as Isabella Plantation, the Windmill and Pen Ponds with, by way of contrast, a short section through the exclusive residential area of Coombe. Three alternative routes are given across Wimbledon Common.
