Overview

A moderate pace walk of 6.25mls along waterways, through areas of industrial heritage. It starts at Cody Dock (toilets) now a centre for the arts and unique bridge construction. The walk progresses along the River Lee to the Olympic Park for a coffee stop. From here we hike along canals and cross parks keeping a look out for the dogs of Alcibiades to end the walk at Hackney Central O/G station. The leader will be taking lunch in a nearby Wetherspoon pub and would welcome your company.
