Overview

From station to station hopping between green spaces and suburban streets. The walk intersects with The Green Chain Walkway and part of the Capital Ring. Firm paths and pavements all the way with road crossing from time to time. 
This is a linear walk but from West Dulwich it’s about fifteen minutes back to Victoria mainline station and tube.
