We are the London Strollers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.

A linear walk of nearly 5 miles, pretty flat and mainly paved, but an interesting area. Finishing at approximately 2pm.
Along a section of the Regents Canal, through London Fields, Hackney Downs and some smaller parks we seek out some of the Hackney Mosaic Project's mosaics, including, on Hackney Downs, The Hounds of the Downs, "78 local dogs immortalised in mosaic". Refreshment stop near the canal.
!!! No booking required, just turn up.

Old Street tube station (Zone 1: Northern Line and National Rail), by the tube exit with the grass roof
Hackney Downs station (Zone 2: London Overground Weaver Line) or Hackney Central station (Zone 2: London Overground Mildmay Line). The two stations are on different lines, so it is best to decide beforehand which one is most convenient for you. We get to Hackney Downs first, then take the 210m walkway to Hackney Central
