Welcome to Capital Walkers, the friendly London Ramblers group for people aged 40+. We walk every weekend and usually at least once during the week.

A brisk 3 mph walk, with scheduled pit-stops.
Combining woodland, fields, historic villages, a majestic mausoleum and a public footpath through huge vineyards.
There are some steep undulations before and after lunch throughout this 14.5-mile walk. (Would you kindly consider this before joining the walk?)
Walking sticks and supportive footwear are recommended for this terrain. Snacks and plenty of liquids are encouraged, especially during warmer weather.
Please bring a picnic lunch. There are ample benches by the river or in the churchyard, where you can sit at lunchtime.
We will stop at the newly reopened Five Bells Pub (for drinks only during our lunch break). Opposite the pub, there is a convenience store serving hot drinks (regular £1.59, large £1.99 each).
There are no exit points.
No toilets are available at Sole Street Station, but loos are on the train from Victoria Station.
