Quick ride by bicycle from Kennington to London

This is a relaxed city spin from Kennington up to central London—a perfect route if you want to ease into urban cycling. Starting in Kennington, a lively south London neighborhood known for its leafy streets and proximity to the Oval cricket ground, you'll weave mostly along quiet roads and dedicated cycleways (great for a stress-free ride).

It’s a short journey—just under 5 km—gently gaining a bit of elevation (you won’t need to worry about any lung-busting climbs here). The route is almost entirely on smooth asphalt, with only a tiny stretch of paving stones, so it’s easy riding for nearly any bike.

You’ll finish up in historic central London, close to iconic sights like Trafalgar Square and the Houses of Parliament. Whether you’re commuting or cruising for fun, this ride is an easy way to soak up a slice of London life!
