Lewisham Summer Holiday Family Rides

A series of short easy rides suitable for all the family. This is the last of our holiday rides so a bit longer. A route to Oxleas Wood via Eltham Palace, Avery hill Park with a chance to pop in on Severndroog Castle. Then, if the group is up to it we can extend it and do a 19 mile loop down to the river then riding from Woolwich to Greenwich, up through the park, across Blackheath and back to Grove Park that way. Or, if we have larger numbers of younger children, there is an option to turn back at Severndroog and retrace our wheels home, which is about 12 miles. Meet 10am to leave at 10.30am. Back in Chinbrook Meadows by 12.30, if shorter ride. Later if we do the longer. Mostly flat, but in this part of the borough hard to avoid every hill! Don't worry, it's fine to get off and walk when we do encounter one! We use cycle paths through parks, traffic free routes and a few quiet roads. Some off road tracks too but nothing that can't be done on a road bike though.
