FREE Autumnal Nunhead Cemetary Walk - Dulwich Village + College Extravaganza!

As golden leaves crunch underfoot and the crisp scent of autumn fills the air, we begin our seasonal stroll at Nunhead Cemetery—one of London’s hidden gems. This Victorian cemetery, shrouded in ivy and dappled in amber sunlight, offers a serene and slightly mysterious start to our walk. As we meander along moss-covered paths, we pass elegant, timeworn tombs and towering trees in full autumn glory—fiery reds, russet browns, and glowing golds setting the scene.
From there, it’s a short walk to Peckham Rye, a lively, ever-evolving neighbourhood where creativity meets community. Here, we pause for lunch at one of the area’s trendy pizzerias—perhaps alfresco if the weather is kind—where sourdough bases and inventive toppings meet warm, rustic charm. It’s the perfect mid-point refuel: satisfying yet stylish.
With appetites sated, we continue southward on foot, taking in the shifting urban scenery as it softens gradually into the village-like calm of Dulwich. Along the way, we’ll glimpse Edwardian homes, leafy lanes, and maybe even the odd fox crossing our path.
Soon, we arrive in Dulwich Village, where the pace slows and time seems to stretch. We pass by the historic Dulwich College, its impressive red-brick façade standing proudly among the trees. A short stroll takes us to the heart of the village, where independent cafés beckon with warm lights and steaming mugs. Whether it’s a rich hot chocolate, a comforting cup of tea, or a robust coffee, we’ll end our journey with a moment to pause and soak in the peaceful surroundings.
In all, this three-hour excursion offers the perfect blend of nature, culture, and cuisine—a gentle, picturesque escape through South London’s quiet beauty as autumn puts on its finest show.
