By bicycle from City of London to Wandsworth

Kick off your ride in the historic heart of London, right amid the iconic skyscrapers and ancient alleyways of the City. This route whisks you from the buzz of financial London down to the leafy neighborhoods of Wandsworth in southwest London. You’ll cruise mostly on quiet roads and designated cycleways, keeping things pretty relaxed and safe as you slice through bustling districts like Westminster, skirt the edge of Battersea Park, and cross the Thames.

The ride is under 17 km and fairly flat, so it’s ideal for a laid-back afternoon spin. Expect smooth rolling on paved surfaces almost the whole way—great for any type of bike. You’ll end your journey in Wandsworth, known for its scenic riverside walks and the sprawling greenery of Wandsworth Common. Along the way, soak in a snapshot of London’s dynamic neighborhoods—from the stone and steel high-rises of the City to the Victorian terraces and local markets in Wandsworth. Grab a coffee or treat at the finish; you’ve earned it!
