Sortie rapide à vélo de Richmond à Hammersmith

This ride takes you from the leafy charms of Richmond to the vibrant riverside bustle of Hammersmith, covering just over 10 km. Starting in Richmond, you’ll roll out from a town famous for its royal park, gorgeous Thames views, and relaxed café scene. The route mostly sticks to quiet roads and proper cycleways—so it’s a great option if you want to avoid too much traffic. Expect a gentle ride with just a few meters of elevation gain (nothing to worry about if you’re not in “hill mode” today!).

You’ll glide alongside stretches of the Thames, passing grand old houses and some green patches. The path is mainly smooth asphalt, with an occasional stretch of paving stones, so regular tires are just fine. As you reach Hammersmith, you’ll notice things get livelier—there’s always a buzz here thanks to the theatres, riverside pubs, and the landmark Hammersmith Bridge.

All in all, this is a relaxed scenic route perfect for a sunny afternoon spin or a laid-back commute. Don’t forget to stop for a coffee—there are plenty of great spots at both ends!
