I'm always on the lookout for quiet local 10k routes. Here are some of mine


* through Dulwich Village, up College Lane to Crystal Palace mast then along Sydenham Hill, Horniman Nature Trail, Dawson's Hill (optional extra leg up One Tree Hill)


* Up Lordship Lane / Mount Adon to Dawson's Hill then along Woodvale / Westwood Park then One Tree Hill, back along the Rye then through Choumert Road to top of Dog Kennel Hill and back down Greendale


* through Dulwich Park, Gallery Rd and Belair to West Dulwich, Rossendale Road, Brockwell Park, Ruskin Park, Greendale

Bellenden Rd, Fenwick Rd, round top edge of Peckham Rye, Wood Vale, Court Lane, Dulwich Village, Red Post Hill, Denmark Hill, Dog Kennel Hill and back... used to be my 10K route. It's all pretty hilly round here. After running a 10K round these parts, running on a flat course makes you feel like Mo Farah.

This is s great thread - thanks to those posting their routes.


Here's our 4 parks 12k (7.4 mile although the app says 6.4. We don't believe it!) loop that 2 of us do every week and which takes us about 50-55 mins - little heavy traffic, green spaces, funny incidents to spot so lots to laugh about - even as we as we stagger up Greendale.

    • He did mention it's share of freehold, I’d be very cautious with that. It can turn into a nightmare if relationships with neighbours break down. My brother had a share of freehold in a flat in West Hampstead, and when he needed to sell, the neighbour refused to sign the transfer of the freehold. What followed was over two years of legal battles, spiralling costs and constant stress. He lost several potential buyers, and the whole sale fell through just as he got a job offer in another city. It was a complete disaster. The neighbour was stubborn and uncooperative, doing everything they could to delay the process. It ended in legal deadlock, and there was very little anyone could do without their cooperation. At that point, the TA6 form becomes the least of your worries; it’s the TR1 form that matters. Without the other freeholder’s signature on that, you’re stuck. After seeing what my brother went through, I’d never touch a share of freehold again. When things go wrong, they can go really wrong. If you have a share of freehold, you need a respectful and reasonable relationship with the others involved; otherwise, it can be costly, stressful and exhausting. Sounds like these neighbours can’t be reasoned with. There’s really no coming back from something like this unless they genuinely apologise and replace the trees and plants they ruined. One small consolation is that people who behave like this are usually miserable behind closed doors. If they were truly happy, they’d just get on with their lives instead of trying to make other people’s lives difficult. And the irony is, they’re being incredibly short-sighted. This kind of behaviour almost always backfires.  
    • I had some time with him recently at the local neighbourhood forum and actually was pretty impressed by him, I think he's come a long way.
