Join us on a 7 mile* walk from Wimbledon Park to Richmond Bridge.

The walk, as Section 6 of the Capital Ring, begins on pavement before crossing Wimbledon Common and Richmond Park mainly on grass or gravel paths.

At this time of year the Common and Park may be muddy, so please dress appropriately.
There are some short steep ascents and descents with plenty of cafes and rest stops along the way.

• The walk should take a leisurely 4 hours with the opportunity to leave at the route's mid point where it crosses the A3 (at Asda).

Synopsis:

Book Description

A cosy, enchanting story about the profound experience of discovering an unlikely family in an unexpected place. The House in the Cerulean Sea is an uplifting, heart-warming queer fantasy from TJ Klune, a Sunday Times and New York Times bestselling author.

Linus Baker leads a quiet life. At forty, he has a tiny house with a devious cat and his beloved records for company. And at the Department in Charge of Magical Youth, he’s spent many dull years monitoring their orphanages. Then, one day, everything changes.

Linus is summoned by Extremely Upper Management and given a highly classified assignment. He must travel to an orphanage where six dangerous children reside – including the Antichrist.

At the orphanage, Linus must somehow determine if these children could bring about the end of days. But their guardian, the charming and enigmatic Arthur Parnassus, will do anything to protect his wards. And, as Arthur and Linus grow ever closer, Linus must choose: his duty, or his dreams . . .
