The Challenge
Get active & explore some of the Capital’s historic areas with a tour of the 'gateway to London' along the Thames’s eastern section.
Starting alongside the grandeur of Woolwich Royal Artillery Barracks (short walk from the new Elizabeth Line station!) – the full 50km looped route heads through Charlton, along the Thames Path to Greenwich and the O2, Old Royal Naval College & the fabulous Cutty Sark, then onwards through central London – crossing the Thames via the Millenium footbridge. It’s then past the Tower of London, and on to the Olympic Park, before returning to Woolwich via the foot tunnel.
A route steeped in history with iconic sights, and capped with a BBQ & bar at the finish – making for a wonderful end of summer celebration!
As Alzheimer's Society are an official partner on this event, you get a 50% discount on the ‘Full Sponsorship’ registration fee when signing up to support us.
The route
- 50km loop through Woolwich Tunnel, and north along the 'Capital Ring' and 'Greenway' to the Olympic Park
- 25km loop from Woolwich, to Canary Wharf and Cutty Sark, returning through Greenwich
- 10km loop from Woolwich Barracks along to the Thames Barrier, and through Maryon Wilson Animal Park
