Overview

We start on the South bank of the river Thames near Vauxhall tube station. It is relatively peaceful here but the walk becomes progressively busy as we get closer to the commercial district of central London. We will pass near the Southbank centre, the National Theatre and the Scoop. At the end of the walk we cross over the iconic Tower Bridge near the historic citadel of the Tower of London and finish near Tower Hill tube station.

Optional: Please join us in the pub at the end of the walk for a drink and a chat.
