Overview

London Loop stage 3 Petts Wood to West Wickham

The London Loop guide says: "This section of the Loop passes through attractive countryside with strong links to Charles Darwin and the Lubbock family. The walking is generally easy. Much of of the route is on footpaths through commons, parks and along tracks. There are a few longish steep slopes and some small flights of steps."
