***IMPORTANT***
Start Location Change
New start location: Woolwich Station on the Elizabeth Line.
Due to disruption on the trains to Woolwich Dockyard the start location has changed to Woolwich Station. Woolwich Station is accesible from the Elizabeth Line.
Please meet outside the front entrance at Woolwich Station, which leads into Dial Arch Square.
We will then walk to the barrier from there. As this adds additional distance to the walk, I will now be finishing the walk at Tower Bridge.
Apologies for this, but the trains have been rather unhelpful this year
Meet at 10:15 walk will start at 10:30
This walk is 1 of 3 walks, where we cover the Thames Pathway in London.

Part 3 – Kew Gardens to Kingston Upon Thames
Part 1 - We start at the Thames Barrier and make our way along the Thames Pathway, heading through Woolwich, Greenwich, Deptford and Bermondsey. The walk offers varied and good views across the Thames and North London, as we loop round to London Bridge.

The group walk at a steady pace of 2.5 miles an hour, and there is requirement of all walkers to respect the general pace.
