ROUTE: Starting from the O2 (Millenium Dome) at North Greenwich Station we walk along the THAMES PATH then cross under the Thames River via the Greenwich Foot Tunnel before making our way along the waterways of CANARY WHARF to end at our pub/restaurant close to the Jubilee line and DLR stations at Canary Wharf.

DISTANCE: Approx 5 miles. Entirely flat.

If you are running a few minutes late, don't worry, we usually wait a short time for latecomers. If you are more than 15 mins late you will have to catch us up. Head for the Thames then southwest along the Thames Path towards Greenwich.

FINISH: We end this walk in Canary Wharf close to Canary Wharf DLR and Jubilee Line Stations.
