Mile End - Circular Canal Walk to Victoria Park, London Fields, Hackney + Pub
Details
This walk goes south from Mile End initially, then loops around the Regents Canal back to The Hertford Canal. We'll have a walk around the lovely Victoria Park, return to the canal further down, and then off through London Fields to Hackney. Its about a seven mile walk, we'll have a coffee somewhere pleasant on the way and finish at the Wetherspoon. The end-time on the event includes the (optional) pub time, and is only a guideline.
We'll be getting a train back to Stratford afterwards. This will be an excellent walk for anyone who wants to jump off early, as public transport will always be a stone's throw away.
We're meeting outside Mile End station at 11am, when we'll be moving off fairly promptly.
I ask for a nominal contribution of £2 to help cover Meetup organiser fees. I structure this so that nobody pays more that once a calendar month. No shrapnel please.
