Overview

Linear walk. Moderate pace. The route goes from CW station to the Thames and then along the river to Greenwich foot tunnel. Once in Greenwich we'll walk into Greenwich Park to enjoy a great view of London and some lovely flower beds (and maybe some deer), and then out of the park back to the river and a riverside walk to North Greenwich/02 Arena. There are many interesting sights, along the way, and I’ll share some information about the ones I know. Lunch (30 minutes - sometime between 12 and 1pm) will be taken somewhere in Greenwich or along the Thames Path, so please bring a packed lunch. Toilets should be available in Greenwich Park and at the 02 Arena. There are numerous potential opt out points along the way, with regular bus services close to the path, and train/DLR stations not too far from the path. All within the Oyster/Freedom Pass area.
