London Summer Walk
It’s back! Get active and explore some of the Capital’s historic areas with a looped walking only tour of the ‘gateway to London’ along the Thames’s eastern section.
About this event
Get your walking shoes on and explore some of London’s hidden gems on this tour of the ‘gateway to London’ along the Thames’s eastern stretch. Discover new areas of the capital, all whilst fundraising for charity and making a real difference with your Challenge.
Head out from basecamp next to the grandeur of Woolwich Barracks (short walk from Elizabeth Line, DLR, & National Rail) on marathon, half-marathon, and 10km routes. Expect sites like Greenwich Riverside, the Thames Barrier, and Tower Bridge on the full marathon route.
Fundraise by walking these routes steeped in history, supported by Ultra Challenge every step of the way with full route marking, regular rest stops packed with food and drink, a lively warm up and event atmosphere, and capped off with a BBQ meal, bar, and music at the finish.
Take on the London Summer Walk with Ultra Challenge and get ready for the perfect Challenge to close out summer and celebrate your fundraising achievement.
