The South East London Green Chain is made up of over 300 open spaces and woodland that form a great arc of undeveloped land between the River Thames and Crystal Palace Park. The Green Chain Walk was established and waymarked in 1977 to ease and encourage the exploration of this unique resource.
The first section of the walk stretches from Thamesmead to Lesnes Abbey.
