We offer walks in London and Home Counties, accessible by public transport.
We take the Thames Path East from Woolwich as far as Thamesmead, then the Green Chain to Lesnes Abbey for lunch. After lunch we climb up through Abbey Woods and Bostall Woods, then descend through woodland to Abbey Wood Station. A varied walk through a mix of landscapes - flat, easy walking in the morning, with Thames views and big skies; a substantial climb on rough paths through autumn woods in the afternoon. Pace will be moderate, with occasional stops to look at bits of history. Toilets are available at Woolwich Works near the start, then at Lesnes Abbey at lunchtime.
Lunch: Picnic at Lesnes Abbey, where there is a kiosk and toilets. Kiosk is usually very busy, so bring food.
Trains: Woolwich Elizabeth Line Station. Good connections to Elizabeth Line from other underground and rail services. Return from Abbey Wood via Elizabeth Line.
Outside Woolwich Elizabeth Line Station.
The walk will end outside Abbey Wood Station.
