Overview

Proceeding via The Royal Victoria dock to Canning Town and Bow Creek, to take a break at the Trinity Buoy Wharf Heritage Centre (toilets, café). We continue along the Thames and tidal basins to Nelson's house and his local pub. We cross the Isle of Dogs via various docks back to the Thames. From here we head North to finish the walk at the West India Quay DLR station. Nearby there is a Wetherspoon pub where the happy hiker may take sustenance.
