This walk follows the first part of London Loop Stage 4 up to the T-junction with the Vanguard Way, which we then follow to East Croydon. Stretches of undulating, muddy woodland, with superb views from Addington Heights, while even the more built-up areas are mainly traversed by footpaths.
Lunch: Picnic on Addington Heights. There will be a pub stop for drinks and toilets shortly before the ascent.
Train: Charing Cross 10:08, London Bridge 10:18, arriving Hayes at 10:51 (Zone 5). There are no toilets on the train to Hayes, and the toilet at Hayes station is not always open.
Drop-out point: Just after lunch, at Coombe Lane tram stop.
