This is as good as you're gonna get:

http://app.strava.com/activities/44389336

It goes through Cranham Marshes, then Thames Chase, and then it's just the uphill slog of Warley Street and Bird Lane, then you arrive at Warley Gap.

Or Hall Lane, then Pages Wood, Tylers Wood.

Possibly a route through Folkes Lane.

You can export from Strava if you have a pro account I think.

I'll download it later and post a link if somebody doesn't beat me to it!
