Sortie rapide à vélo de Borough londonien de Wandsworth à Battersea

This easygoing cycling route takes you from the leafy streets of Wandsworth up to vibrant Battersea—covering just under 6 km and mainly sticking to quiet roads and dedicated cycleways, so it’s perfect for a chill ride or a stress-free commute.

Starting in Wandsworth, you’ll roll out near the River Thames and possibly catch a glimpse of the famous Wandsworth Prison and the bustling Southside Shopping Centre. The ride quickly gets you off the busier main streets, winding through residential areas with a mix of smooth asphalt, some paving stones, and the occasional patch of cobblestone for that authentic London charm.

Despite Battersea’s industrial heritage, it’s now one of the city’s most dynamic neighbourhoods. You’ll likely end up near Battersea Park—one of London’s prettiest green spaces—or close to the iconic Battersea Power Station, now transformed with shops, restaurants, and riverfront hangouts.

There’s barely any climbing, so you can enjoy a laid-back pedal with lots of scenery and minimal traffic. All in all, a great mini-adventure across two of southwest London’s greatest districts!
