There are at least four different routes, and many more route combinations to ride through Walthamstow Marshes. They link up to Hackney Marshes and down to the Thames, Walthamstow Wetlands and the Lea Valley trails up to Tottenham Marshes and beyond.
After heavy rain avoid the upper route, as the underpass under the railway usually floods. The path by the river is lovely and wide but paved with loose gravel. Overall, a beautiful, relaxing route to ride.

In 1909, the aero-designer Alliott Verdon Roe made the first all-British powered flight across the marsh.
