The walk, run by Canal & River Trust, will be led by volunteer walk leaders who are full of interesting information about the local area.
Please join us for a fun leisurely walk along the canal. You'll learn a lot and meet new people!
We'll meet at the Blu Ivy Cafe (Stop D Haverfield Green/Grove Rd on Bus route 8 is the closest to Blu Ivy Cafe) then go down to Old Ford Lock. Then they'll be a straight run down along Mile End Park. They'll be different sites like the Ecology Pavilion, Bancroft Jewish Cemetery, Green Bridge, Queen Mary UL campus, Ragged School Museum, Limehouse Basin and we'll finish at Limehouse Overground. They'll be opportunities to stop along the way.
The walk will be over about lunch time and people can use the DLR from Limehouse to move on or go to a nearby pub for a pint and some lunch (self-funded).
The great thing about walking is that you do not need any fancy equipment. Please just wear comfortable shoes and bring a jacket if raining. However with all the fallen leaves the tow path (even if it is not raining) it can be muddy/slippy so stout shoes are really required (stronger than recommended).
