Helen’s Wild Dogs and Gin Walk: Regent’s Canal - Little Venice to Limehouse basin- Round 3!

Regent’s Park and London Zoo

As you walk along, you’re likely to see glimpses of the animals – the African hunting dogs' enclosure runs alongside the canal, and exotic birds can often be spotted in Snowden’s Aviary.

Shop for knick-knacks at Camden Market

It’s easy to get distracted at Camden Lock, probably one of London’s coolest neighbourhoods.

There’s a tempting international street food market where you can feast on global tasty treats from all over the planet.

We will stop here for around 60 mins for you to look and maybe grab a bite of lunch.

A detour through Islington

At Islington High Street, a couple of miles further along, we’ll leave the towpath and take a wander through Islington before re-joining the waterway. We will stop here for an short time to allow people to grab some more food if they are still hungry, enjoy their picnic or even look at the shops.

If you didn’t grab lunch back in Camden, The Narrowboat Pub serves hearty pub grub. An added bonus is the view of the canal from the balcony - a perfect spot on a sunny day.

The last leg: King’s Cross and Victoria Park

Once we pass Victoria park, it's not long till we get to Limehouse, around 4.30pm. Here you can head home on the Uber Clipper from Canary Wharf Pier or jump on a DLR train which will connect you with wherever you’re headed in London or beyond.

Or you can decide to stay in London, walk more, have dinner, visit relatives or whatever takes your fancy!
