Overview

A linear walk along the Thames Path from Richmond Station to Kingston. We will reach Ham House after 45-60 minutes where we will stop to look around the house and have refreshments.  Ham House is a unique 17th-century treasure trove and belongs to the National Trust. Members are free to enter otherwise there is an adult charge of £15(price increase 1/3/24). We will leave Ham House and continue on the Thames Path to Teddington Lock and on to Kingston. The Thames Path is a cycle path and a hard surface. There are no stiles and no mud but possibly wet leaves on the path. THERE IS A POSSIBILITY OF FLOODING ALONG THE RIVER AFTER RECENT HEAVY RAIN
