London Summer Walk: August 2026
Get your walking shoes on and explore some of the Capital’s less known historic areas with a tour of the ‘gateway to London’ along the Thames’s eastern section. Starting alongside the grandeur of Woolwich Royal Artillery Barracks (short walk from Elizabeth Line, DLR, & Overground) – we have a MARATHON looped route which heads into the heart of the Capital – alongside the fabulous 25km loop option taking in Greenwich – and a 10km option if you’re after something a bit shorter! Routes steeped in history with iconic sights, a lively warm up, full support all the way, and capped with a BBQ meal, bar & music at the finish – making for a wonderful end of Summer celebration!
