London Summer Walk

Saturday 23 August 2025

Explore some of the capital’s historic sights with our London Summer Walk 2025.

Our 25km loop takes you around the eastern section of the Thames. Starting at Woolwich Royal Artillery Barracks, you’ll walk along the Thames Path near the Greenwich Peninsula through Charlton. On your way you’ll spot the O2, the Old Royal Naval College and the famous Cutty Sark.

There’s also a shorter 10km walk option if you’re not up for the full 25km.
