Walking the Green Link Walk

London’s newest walking route, the Green Link Walk, is now open. It connects nearly 40 areas of green space large and small. Our news page for the route has a map giving an overview of the whole walk which runs from Epping Forest to Peckham. 

Most of the route has now been waymarked but there are some gaps both in the Lea Valley and in the City of London. Work continues to improve the signage along the route.

The main route has been designed with accessibility in mind. As well as removing barriers such as bollards to ensure that everyone can access the route, the Green Link Walk also avoids streets without dropped kerbs and bridges with steep ramps and steps.

Our walk guidance offers alternative routes and diversions that explore more of the green spaces and places of interest along the way. These variants, however, may not meet the wheelability standards of the main route.
