Overview

Starting from Island Gardens DLR station, we walk through Millwall Park and around Mudchute Farm, where we should see a number of different animals. We then follow part of the Thames Path and walk beside South Dock to finish at Canary Wharf. Lunch at the end of the walk at the Ledger Building, Canary Wharf. An interesting walk on good paths with lots of variety .
