How would i get from Kings cross to Covent garden via underground?

I need to get from kings cross to covent garden via underground. Do you know which route to take? i don't understand the tube network at all.

How would i get from Kings cross to Covent garden via underground?
Take the Piccadilly Line towards Heathrow. It is the 3rd stop.



The two stops in between will be Russel Square and Holborn.



To plan a route, you can visit the TfL website: http://www.tfl.gov.uk/



Here is a underground map, Piccadilly line is the navy blue line and Covent Garden in near the center of the map: http://www.raz7.com/underground_map.jpeg
Reply:Get the Northern Line southbound to Embankment or Charing Cross then walk for 4 minutes following the signs to Covent Garden.
Reply:piccadilly line southbound towards heathrow. pesonally i would take the northern line to leicester square and walk back up long achre, the station at covent garden is always overcrowded and getting out takes ages as the only way out is a lift (well you could walk up the 193 stairs on the nasty spiral staircase if you prefer).
Reply:Jump on the piccidilly line at Kings Cross (it's the royal blue line on the map) make sure it's southbound and then it is just 3 stops to Covent gardens.
Reply:Its so close to walk and you miss the nice architecture if you are underground.
Reply:Straight through on the Piccadilly Line
Reply:on a train
Reply:Piccadilly line
Reply:From King's Cross to Covent Garden is ever so easy.

Take any westbound Piccadilly line train (it's the line that's dark blue on the tube maps) -- it's three stops (about five minutes) to Covent Garden station.

The lifts from the platforms to street level are crowded at most times of day but still very efficient -- I use Covent Garden for work quite a bit and you rarely have to wait more than a minute or two. Have your ticket or travel pass in your hand as the lift doors open; the barriers and the exit to the street are right in front of you. Look to your right as you come out of the station and you'll see Covent Garden piazza (the old market).



Hope you have a good time!
Reply:just find a tube map (just google it!) it's really easy probably just one line. I don't live in London but ive been there and the tube maps are really easy to understand. Even if you need to change lines, it shouldn't be a problem either!
