Overview

A rehearsal for our joint walk with London Blind Ramblers (LBR) on 6 April. This walk is so that prospective Kingston assistants to LBR walkers can familiarise themselves with the quirks of the route. Volunteers to help guide blind ramblers are needed. However, if you just want to come for the walk, you are equally welcome. The walk is broadly based on Section 9 of the Green Chain Walk, with parts of Sections 7 & 8. Via The Tarn, Middle Park, Foxes Field, Lower and Upper Marvels Woods, Elmstead Wood, Grove Park Cemetery (picnic lunch, lavatories), and Beckenham Place Park (cafe and lavatories). Bus opt-outs on major roads.
