Capital Ring 8. Stoke Newington to Woolwich, 12.5 miles, moderate

The initial part of the walk is quite suburban until we reach the edge of Walthamstow Marshes. We then follow the Lea and along the edge of the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park. There is there is then a long stretch along the Greenway – basically a walking/cycling path on top of sewage pipes (with the biggest flow of sewage in the UK at more than 100 million gallons per day!). We then pass Abbey Mills Pumping Station before we reach Becton District Park followed by our last stretch making our way to Woolwich and the finish of the Capital Ring!

This is a no dog 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).
