Southall Discovery Ride

From Ealing Broadway we will ride through North Ealing, Pitshanger Park, Perivale Park, Brent Valley Park and up into Greenford and Southall before joining the Paddington branch of the Grand Union Canal tow path to reach the new development of the Green Quarter estate. This is located within the new Green Quarter estate where the Open Southall Community Hub is located and where we will stop to enjoy refreshments at the Southall Coffee House.

Our return journey will take us through Southall Park to see the mosaic globe, then we will join another branch of the Grand Union Canal tow path, past the Hanwell flight of locks, then onto Lammas Park and Walpole park where we will be able to view the boards displaying the winning entries in the Ealing Wildlife photographic competition before returning to our starting point of Ealing Town Hall.

This ride should be suitable to cyclists who want to regain confidence and would like to discover the great network of routes in the borough of Ealing. We will travel along traffic free trails across parks, shared paths, quieter roads where possible and we will ride at the speed of the slowest rider. We hopefully will enjoy the changing colours of autumn and the smells of the Indian spices around Southall.

We will ride along traffic free trails across Parks, shared paths, quieter roads where possible, with only a few shorter stretches on busier roads. This is a relatively flat ride.

We will stop at the Southall Coffee House for refreshments, located within the new Green Quarter estate and part of the open Southall Community Hub.
