Route Description
Route profile by ZwiftHub – the place to plan and track your route achievements!
This counterclockwise loop is one of the oldest routes in Zwift’s London map. You’ll begin with a ride along rolling roads near the Thames before turning a hard right for a quick climb up to Trafalgar Square, followed by a descent past Big Ben.
Cross the Thames and you’ll find yourself descending into an Underground station, which magically transports you out into the Surrey countryside to ride up Box Hill.
From the top of Box Hill, you’ll descend the other side (called Fox Hill here on Zwift), then enter another Underground station to be taken back into London for the last bit of the circuit, which takes you across Tower Bridge.
The route ends where it began, at the London lap arch. If you’re in a race, be ready for the fast, slightly downhill final sprint!
