Lower Lea Valley River Ride

A scenic ride starting from Victoria Park, cycling through the Lower Lea Valley with riverside cycling most of the way. One of London's best kept secrets, Victoria Park is a fantastic place to spend an afternoon. Take in the sights of the city's first public park, opened in the East End in 1845 by Queen Victoria. The ride showcases the regenerated Lower Lea Valley, home to the Olympic Park. This is a fantastic family fun ride.
