Explore a different side of East London on this urban walk through a landscape shaped by canals, industry, and innovation. Starting along the River Lea, we’ll follow the water as it weaves through the quieter edges of the city—past the Hertford Union and onto the Regent’s Canal.
Along the way, you’ll pass tucked-away studios, production spaces, and unexpected creative hubs, all set against the backdrop of old industrial infrastructure and evolving neighbourhoods. This is East London as you may not have seen it before—where water and work still flow side by side.
Train: Bromley-by-Bow Station is served by the District Line and Hammersmith & City Line, Travel Zone 2.
Lunch: A short tea break at Victoria Park, and there are plenty of eateries near the walk’s end at Dalston Junction.
Toilet: Facilities are available at the Copper Box and in Victoria Park.
