This circular London walk offers real breathing space within the City. Although the island is under rapid development, the clatter is muted by the calm waters of the Thames that gracefully meander towards the sea. Grebes, gulls and people alike enjoy the escape it offers from the frenetic urban forest. There are two very different worlds here and both are very enjoyable. Along the walk the Isle of Dogs has plenty of green space on offer with the Sir John McDougal and Island Gardens and Mudchute farm part of our walk. There’s lots of fascinating history to uncover too – all shaped by the presence of the mighty Thames.
Lunch: Plenty of eateries at the end of the walk but bring a picnic or snack to enjoy on the way. Will stop at Mudchute Farm for coffee and cake.
Train: Canary Wharf Underground station is accessible by Jubilee Line, DLR and Elizabeth Line
Please note: many factors can affect how long a walk takes and the finish time given is an estimate only.
