Join Niels for a 7.5 miles linear walk along the River Thames. We start in Canary Wharf - offering great views up river toward the City - and then head to the Limehouse Basin. The first part of our walk may be through very modern areas but, as we get to Wapping and St Katherine Dock, we see plenty of former warehouses while walking along cobblestone streets. On leaving St Katherine, we emerge by Tower Bridge and the Tower of London. We cross the river at London Bridge which offers some of the best river views. As we walk through Shad Thames, on the south side of the river, we see even more former warehouses turned into expensive apartments. However, as we get closer to Rotherhithe the area becomes more modern and also a lot more quite. We finally leave the river and walk through Southwark Park to our end point at Canda Water Station which offers access to the Jubilee line and the TFL Overground.
