The Capital Ring is a 78-mile (125km) walking route encircling inner London that links the astonishing number of islands of green space - parks,woodlands,abandoned railway lines,towpaths and nature reserves - which still survive in the very heart of the city. The Ring takes in many of London's leading attractions - for example,the Thames Barrier,Eltham Palace and Richmond Park - as well as overlooked gems such as Oxleas Meadows,the Parkland Walk and Abbey Mills Pumping Station,and gives a close-up view of the ever-changing Olympic Park. This guide divides the route into 15 sections,each starting and finishing at a public transport point,and is packed with a vast amount of information.
