Starting alongside the grandeur of Woolwich Royal Artillery Barracks, our 25 km looped route heads through Charlton, along the Thames Path around the Greenwich Peninsula – past the O2, Old Royal Naval College & the fabulous Cutty Sark. Then it’s through the Greenwich foot tunnel and into Docklands – past the Thames Barrier Park and back to Woolwich via the 2nd foot tunnel.

Shout is the only free, confidential, 24/7 text messaging support service for anyone in the UK struggling to cope. Every 60 seconds, someone reaches out to us in distress.

That support could be life-saving.
You saved my life last night and I couldn't be more grateful. The understanding and compassion you showed me was more than I could have asked for.
