Capital Ring 3 - Crystal Palace to Earlsfield

Moderate 9 miles/14.5km Ascent 299ft/91.1m Linear

We will meet outside Crystal Palace station at 10.30.
This is a great varied walk encompassing a surprising amount of greenery given we spend most of the day in South London. There are top notch food and drink stops and just in case the excitement is getting too much we also stride past Streatham Pumping Station, Tooting Bec lido (one of the largest in Europe - 100 yards long and 33 yards wide), and near the end Wandsworth Prison - which at various times has housed Oscar Wilde and Ronnie Biggs (until he escaped!). We finish at Earlsfield for easy travel back to London Waterloo
Just be aware - it is a surprisingly hilly walk - we will take our time and have plenty of breaks - but you have been warned!
This is a no dogs walk

Please note that there is a £2 payment required for non-Ramblers members to help cover our Meetup costs. Please help the walk leader by bringing the exact change.
Members of the Ramblers Association are welcome on any of our walks, but we would still encourage you to RSVP on Meetup. This will give our volunteer walk leaders an idea of how many are attending, and also to keep the numbers manageable. If, on the day of the walk, you are still on the waiting list and a Ramblers member, you can attend just let the walk leader know you are coming by adding a comment 'Coming as a Rambler'. You will find the start location via our website Our Walks (westkentwalkinggroup.org.uk).
