Cycling day trip from Camberwell to Hammersmith

Set off from vibrant Camberwell, a lively South London neighborhood known for its art scene and great food spots, and make your way west to Hammersmith, a riverside hub famed for its theatres and historic pubs.

This 20.7 km ride gives you a smooth experience, with plenty of dedicated cycleways and quiet roads making up most of the journey—so it’s a relaxed pedal rather than a battle with traffic. You'll pass through funky neighborhoods like Brixton and scenic stretches near Battersea, catching glimpses of classic Victorian terraces and leafy parks along the way.

The route is mostly flat, with just a gentle ascent and descent to add a bit of variety (nothing too strenuous). With mainly paved and asphalt surfaces under your wheels, it’s a comfortable spin, perfect for commuters or a leisurely weekend ride.

End your journey in Hammersmith and treat yourself to a riverside drink or take a stroll across the famous Hammersmith Bridge. It’s a great way to see a slice of South and West London by bike!
