CANARY WHARF £5 WALK and CABLE CAR RIDE

Details

A WALK THROUGH CANARY WHARF and DOCKLANDS including a trip on the CABLE CAR.

It is estimated that the cable car service can carry 2,500 people per hour and takes just 5 minutes to travel between stations. There are 34 gondolas, each with a maximum capacity of 10 passengers.
There is an additional fee for the cable car ride, see below.

WALK START: Canary Wharf Station (Jubilee Line). Elizabeth Line also available. Look for Ken with the meetup badge, outside the Jubilee Line Station. Use Jubilee Plaza exit from station.

WALK ROUTE: Canary Wharf, East India Dock, Trinity Buoy Wharf ,Royal Victoria Dock and Greenwich North. before finishing in the Wetherspoons pub at the O2

WALK DISTANCE: Approx 4.5 miles

WALK FINISH: O2 Wetherspoons pub where the socialising can continue close to North Greenwich Station (Jubilee Line)

STOPOUT POINT: We are near bus routes at several points during the walk.

COST of EVENT:
All of the walks on this group are only £5 each to attend. Payment is not collected before the day of the event to allow you maximum flexibility. Why pay more on other groups for overpriced walks with no afterwalk socialising!!
The walk is free for holders of the Ken's Events Membership Card.
NOTE that there is an additional cable car fare (£6 standard fare, concessions available).

Please scroll down to see Disclaimer and Notice of Risks.

Social Event:
Our walks are social walks, where the emphasis is on meeting new people, enjoying nature, healthy exercise, and fresh air. Our walks are not interrupted with running commentaries or historical lectures, although occasionally features of significance may be pointed out. As such our walks will be continuous with few stops and it is your responsibilty to keep walkers ahead in view and to follow the direction of the walk. WE ALWAYS END THE WALK AT A PUB WHERE THE SOCIALISING CAN CONTINUE.

Please post no pre-event messages unless you are posting something relevant for the whole group and only post photos of other members with their consent.

RAIN POLICY: Our walks normally go ahead as planned even if it rains. Light rain is not usually a problem . However if torrentail rain is forecast, please check back to this webpage on the morning of the event around 10am for the latest update.

NOTICE of RISKS applicable for all walks:
Please dress appropriately for weather and terrain conditions.
Only wear good sturdy shoes, with ankle support, and carry a bottle of water and necessary medication. You need to be moderately fit for this walk and able to walk for at least 8 miles. This walk is suitable for the average experienced hill walker. Expect some hills. Do not attend this walk if you do not fit that description or if you have a medical condition (especially heart and/or lung conditions) that may impact upon your capability of completing the walk.
These walks are city walks and countryside walks where all the usual risks of injury during such walks apply resulting from interactions with road traffic, joggers, cyclists, e-scooters,other members of the public, animals (farm, domestic and wild), plants (allergic reactions), uneven surfaces, including portruding tree roots and potholes and there may be low overhanging branches.
In these walks we cross busy roads, use towpaths alongside water, bridlepaths, country lanes and sometimes ill defined paths and tracks through woodland, bush and countryside. Some tracks may be muddy and slippery, and conditions may be wet and icy. The host and walk leader is not and does not purport to be a professional guide, or a medical professional, but is instead a like minded individual who also enjoys hill walking and who is familiar with the intended route.
Do not attend this walk unless you accept and consent to the above risks. If you require insurance for these walks then you must arrange this yourself.

No large dogs or small children please.

Please arrive in good time to allow opportunity to use toilets at the start of the walk as there may not be any toilet breaks available during the walk.
