About the event
This is a tough 1-day challenge that will see you walking a marathon distance from Hampton Court to the Millennium Bridge. Following the Thames Path for 42 km, you'll see the changing landscape from leafy areas of west London to the bustling city sights in the east.
Our challenge starts near Hampton Court, and after passing Teddington Lock, you'll see the historic Old Deer Park and Kew Gardens. After passing upmarket Chiswick and Barnes, you’ll continue through Putney and Wandsworth to the beautiful Battersea Park, before heading over the bridge to pass right next to the Houses of Parliament. Next, you’ll head through the hubbub of the South Bank, where you’ll see the famous sight of the Millennium Bridge welcoming you to your finish point.
