Wapping to Canary Wharf walk, August

New thread to cover the details and planning.

Hello, me again,

With regard to a tour around Wapping/Shadwell, using the guides I posted recently, I have some proposed dates, if there is interest. I think the Wapping to Canary Wharf walk (3.5 miles) could be Ok, we can tailor this and take a bus/train if needed to reduce walking distance. The suggested walk is here, https://mylondonwalks.com/walks/a-walk-from-wapping-to-canary-wharf/

To get to Wapping, I'd take the London Overground from New Cross, which it looks you can get to from Orpington via top-rail, then London Overground, through Brunel's first tunnel to Wapping. If we finish somewhere around Canary wharf, DLR back to Lewisham.

I'm on a 2 week staycation/holiday from Monday 9th August to Friday 20th August.  The 10th/11th have events but other days are free. Would travel off-peak for convenience and to reduce number of people around. Who else is interested?

Yep, put me on list Ian subject final dates tbc but okay for August plus rail travel should be good by then….

Hi Ian, Sounds good to me.  Totally free in August so far!
