Greenwich Park to Oxleas Woods

The ride starts at Greenwich Park main Gates, the entry from Blackheath Common. We will ride across the heat and on to Kidbrooke, up across Eltham South Park and over the A2 to approach Oxleas woods. We will cycle up to the cafe and stop for cake and coffee.
Our return journey takes us across Shooters Hill and on a steep downhill to Woolwich Common, through Charlton Park and around the Royal Standard back to Greenwich Park.
There is a gentle incline for some of the ride and a short sharp hill to the cafe. Most of the route is off road although we do have to cross one busy road and a couple of less busy roads.

We will leave from the main gates at the top of Greenwich Park, heading accross Blackheath Common to Kidbrooke on designated paths to Eltham Park south and up to Oxleas Woods. after a cafe stop in the cafe at Oxleas we'll head back to Greenwich Park through Charlton Park.

The majority of the route is traffic free, We will need to croos some busy roads and the climb up to Oxleas Woods cafe is a stedy climb. The return route features a fairly steep decline which we can take slowly.
