📖 路线介绍
Follow the River Wandle, London’s best-kept secret, on a fully off-road route that weaves through historic mills, lavender fields, and a deer park. Low-carbon: take National Rail to Earlsfield, then walk south. Highlights: the ruined 18th-century watermill at Merton Abbey Mills (where William Morris designed textiles), the Wandle Meadow Nature Park’s wildflower meadows, and the walled garden at Morden Hall Park (NT). Insider tip: spot kingfishers and herons near the weir behind the Deen City Farm. This route is flat, family-friendly, and rich in industrial heritage.
