Finchley & Hornsey is a friendly group, open to everyone. We walk mainly in Herts and surrounding counties.
A mostly flat walk alongside the Thames Path following the meander of the river around the Greenwich Peninsula to the Cutty Sark. At this point (6.4 miles) we can stop for lunch and enjoy the views and walkers have the option of dropping out and getting on the DLR train. Continuing on through historic Deptford, Rotherhithe and Bermondsey the walk will end a Tower Bridge. The whole walk is an intriguing blend of the old and new with monumental artworks, old industrial sites and is mostly traffic free with exception of cyclists and joggers.
Toilet breaks are sparse and spread out. Please bring a picnic but there are cafes and shops along the way.
Entirely paved surfaces so softer footwear recommended. Some steps up and down.
Meet at the exit to Woolwich Station on the Elizabeth Line at 10:30
Cross the bridge to get to Tower Hill tube station if travelling to anywhere on the north side of the Thames.
