Overview

Part 3 - We start at Barnes Bridge and complete our London Thames Pathway walks by finishing at Hampton Court Palace. We pass Kingston Upon Thames, Richmond, Twickenham as we make our way along.

The walk is on pathways, so walking shoes are recommended. There will be a lunch stop, so please bring a packed lunch. There will also be the option of a pub stop at the end.

Transport back is via train from Hampton Court to Waterloo. If journeying on from there, its recommended to walk over to Embankment and catch a tube for Liverpool Street / Fenchurch Street. Alternatively you can pick up the Jubilee line and head to Stratford.

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.

Numbers are strictly limited and places need to be prebooked with the walk leader.

Please note that this walk is subject to any rail timetable changes being made nearer the event.
