The Tideway team will join 2000 walkers on a trek across the capital, taking in unrivalled views of the skyline, and historic landmarks. Setting out from the Putney Bridge start we head East towards the City, zig-zagging over 16 historic bridges – each with its own fascinating story – and passing several project sites. There is a mid-point rest stop at Vauxhall Pleasure Gardens for some snacks & drinks. 25km later, celebrate in style at the finish in Southwark Park past the final crossing – the majestic Tower Bridge.
