Overview

This walk precedes our South Bank Christmas Lunch, which this year is being held at The Alexandra Pub in Wimbledon. All are welcome on the walk, but lunch must be pre-booked.

From the tube station we walk along quiet roads to Wimbledon Park, then on to Wimbledon Common and to the Windmill before descending to the recently renovated Queensmere ponds, we return across to Wimbledon Village and downhill to The Alexandra.

The route will be adapted to take account of ground conditions, but no party shoes please, as there will probably be some mud.
