Waterlink Way is a long distance cyclepath and walking route in South East London. It extends from Cator Park in New Beckenham to the Cutty Sark ship in Greenwich, a total of eight miles.[1][2]

The Waterlink Way is an established part of the National Cycle Network (Route 21). It connects a number of parks and green spaces in South East London – including Ladywell Fields and Brookmill Park – while following the Pool and Ravensbourne rivers.[3] The route was designed to be accessible, with a large number of railway stations including Kent House, Lower Sydenham, Ladywell, Lewisham and Greenwich en route.[4]

In Cator Park, the cyclepath links with the Capital Ring and Green Chain Walk long distance footpaths.
