Capital Ring – SE

Capital Ring

In October 2020 we started walking clockwise around the Capital Ring footpath. The route dates from 2005 and completely encircles inner and central London.  It is approximately 80 miles long and the official start is the Woolwich foot tunnel.

We aimed to make a series of 13 trips to the walk and finish it within a year.
