Thames Path: Kingston to Hampton Court

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

This riverside gravel path is definitely the best way to get from Kingston to Hampton Court. The gravel is very hard-packed and can be done on a road bike.

Teddington Lock

Highlight • Historical Site

The river pathway from Kew Bridge to Richmond is unmetalled and can be rough and muddy in wet weather. Also, strictly speaking, cycling is not permitted, although everybody does it. So take it easy, watch your speed, and always give way to pedestrians, no matter how belligerent they are.
