Visit Greenwich Peninsula Ecology Park

Apologies but the Ecology Park will be closed on Wednesday 24th and Thursday 25th June and now also Friday 26th June. This is due to the red warning for extreme heat on these days and is for the safety of visitors and the staff team. The park will be back open again on Saturday 27th June. The inner Ecology Park area is normally open on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 10am to 5pm.

Access is through the Gatehouse – the wooden building situated alongside the Thames Path (between the end of John Harrison Way and Greenwich Yacht Club). Visits are free and there’s no need to book ahead. The new bridge connecting the inner and outer boardwalk is now open and is also accessed via the Gatehouse.

How to get to Greenwich Peninsula Ecology Park

Underground

North Greenwich on the Jubilee Line, then a 10-15 minute walk along the Thames Path. Find the cable car next to the river and go under and past it, going away from the O2. Keep following the Thames Path until you see our wooden entrance building.

By bus

108, 129, 132, 161, 180, 188, 335, 422, 472, 486 to North Greenwich station. Buses 108, 129, 132, 161, 335, 472, 486 all stop at the Millennium Village Oval Square . The 422 stops on John Harrison Way and the 188 on Millennium Way. From the Millennium Village Oval Square bus stop, head towards John Harrison Way and walk down the road to the dead end where it meets the river path. Turn right onto the river path and you will see the wooden gatehouse ahead of you.

By bicycle or on foot

Along the Thames Path between the O2 and the Thames Barrier.
