A watery walk down the Thames and up Regent’s Canal. The walk takes us across the Millennium Bridge and Tower Bridge and along the Thames Path to Wapping. After lunch at the historic Town of Ramsgate we continue along the Thames Path to Limehouse and then along Regent’s Canal to Victoria Park and ever-changing Hackney Wick. Many interesting sights line the route.
Please note that the meeting point will be Blackfriars tube station entrance on the river’s north bank; Thameslink passengers can reach this directly from the Thameslink platforms.
