Thames path: Richmond to Kew Bridge via Syon Park, 5 miles
About the event
We will meet outside the Richmond tube station and make our way via the scenic Thames path.
• We will walk towards the Richmond Bridge and cross the river. By the way, Richmond is the only London Borough situated on both sides of the Thames. Then we will proceed via Thames path and Richmond Lock to enter the Syon Park. • We will pass via the Syon House, which is A Grade I [listed building](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Listed_building) and is the former west London residence of the Duke of Northumberland. • We will then continue our walk following the River Brent until it reaches the Thames and will arrive at Kew Bridge via the Waterman’s Park. • This is where the walk ends. Optional drinks/lunch at the local pub after the walk. • Kew Bridge station is 2mins away. Gunnersbury Park station for the district line and Overground is 12mins away.
