Overview

Start from the O2, meet at the main entrance (EX162).  We visit the nearby Ecology Park and then follow the Thames Path to the Thames Barrier.  From here, we follow the Green Chain through Maryon Park and Maryon Wilson Animal Park to Charlton Park.  Lunch at the end of the walk at Charlton House.  An easy walk on good paths.
