Overview

This fascinating walk around the village of Dulwich where we will see buildings that are hundreds of years old with a rich history. The walk also includes Dulwich Park and Dulwich Woods and the last surviving tollgate in London. We will stop for refreshments and toilets in Dulwich Park and visit the famous Dulwich Picture Gallery. Free entry into the gardens, cafe and toilets. Entrance into the Picture gallery (optional) costs £9. The terrain is mostly good paths although Dulwich Woods could be muddy after rain.  There are some gentle inclines and declines.
