Welcome to Capital Walkers, the friendly London Ramblers group for people aged 40+. We walk every weekend and usually at least once during the week.
James M.
Approx 6 miles at a moderate pace
There is a limit of 15 people for this walk, as it’s only my second time as a walk leader, and booking is essential. Please book by email before 21st May 2025.
The walk starts at Canary Wharf Jubilee Line Station (a few minutes walk from the DLR and Elizabeth Line stations, if you prefer them to the Jubilee Line) and we meet in Reuters Plaza, which is just outside the main exit (I’ll stand next to the large 3D “Canary Wharf” sign). There are toilets in the shopping mall on the south side of the station (at same level as ticket barriers), which are usually open. Please use them before joining the walk. More toilets should be available, when we reach the Tower Bridge area.
We will walk down to the river, at Canary Wharf Pier, and then use the Thames Path (and some roads), through Limehouse and Wapping, to Tower Bridge. From there we’ll walk over the bridge and then alongside the river to Waterloo station. There are many interesting sights, along the way, and I’ll share some information about the ones I know.
Lunch (30 minutes) will be taken somewhere along the Thames Path, so please bring a packed lunch (I’ll aim for sometime between 12 and 1pm, for lunch).
There are numerous potential drop out points along the way, with regular bus services close to the path, and train/tube/DLR stations not too far from the path. All within the Oyster/Freedom Pass area.
**SORRY, BUT NO DOGS ON THIS WALK**
