About the event
Starting alongside the grandeur of Woolwich Royal Artillery Barracks (short walk from the new Elizabeth Line station) - the 25km looped route heads through Charlton, along the Thames Path around the Greenwich Peninsula then past the O2, Old Royal Naval College and the fabulous Cutty Sark. After it's through the Greenwich foot tunnel and into Docklands where you'll go past the Thames Barrier Park and head back to Woolwich via the 2nd foot tunnel.
A route steeped in history with iconic sights and capped with a BBQ and bar at the finish - making for a wonderful end of summer celebration!
