The London Walkers Group ~ Walk the Walk

Walk the Walk!

Time to dust off those hiking/walking boots, probably bought with good intentions a couple of years ago, and put them to actual use instead of simply admiring them as they sit there in your shoe cupboard.

Come on, you know you want to!

These are the London Walks that we will be tackling each and every Sunday, walking them in the sizeable chunks recommended:

The Capital Ring
The London Loop
Green Chain Walk
Jubileee Walk way
Lea Valley Walk
Thames Path
Jubilee Greenway

Join us on one, some or all Sundays to complete each of these walks. We will meet at 11am at a specific point of each walk to complete each section of whichever walk currently being undertaken.

The aim is to end up somewhere for a pub lunch, or drink, at the end of the section.

Sign up to this blog or search on facebook for London Walkers Group for information of where to next meet and we will endevour to find the address of a pub to aim for.
