This next section of the Thames pathway takes us close to central London, with a few parks and gardens along the way. This section will be approximately 12 miles.

We will start on the south side of Kew Bridge at 10 am.  There is free parking on the A307 Kew Road outside Kew Gardens on a Sunday.  As Kew Gardens does not open until 10 am there should be spaces before then.  For those wanting a pre walk Tea or Coffee there is SIFT Bakes & Brews nearby on Mortlake Terrace.

We will return using the underground from Pimlico to Kew on the Victoria and District lines.  For those wanting a shorter walk it is possible to get the tube from Putney Bridge, although this is roughly at the half way point.

There is little to choose between using the M1/A1, A406  or M25/M4 in terms of driving time (around an hour). I will probably use the former route.

Let me know if you plan on coming and wish to lift share by next Friday.
