Breeze to Walthamstow Wetlands

From the Ponders End Park, we will cycle to down South Street to Ponders End Station, over the pedestrian walkway and onto the River Lee. After 5 miles of peaceful cycling along the towpath, and a couple of hundred meters along a cycle lane and we will reach the wetlands, for a coffee and cake in the cafe.

We will follow the same route on the way back to Ponders End.

Fun, free and friendly ride down the River Lee to the excellent cafe at the Walthamstow Wetlands, and back. Mostly flat, easy ride along the Lee - with very small sections on quiet roads or a segregated cycle path. Lovely wildlife.

We will mostly be riding along the canal towpath past the riverboats and wildlife to the Wetlands.

We will stop at the Walthamstow Wetlands, which has quite a posh cafe. There are toilets along the route.

Please bring a helmet, bike lock and money for the cafe. Sun cream if the weather is good.

First-timers welcome!
