Route
Start between 0800 and 0900 from the South Bank in front of City Hall, Southwark (The Queen's Walk, London SE1 2AA, TQ334801 – to be confirmed). All entrants will receive a scannable identity card to present at each checkpoint and finish to track progress. The start is close to London Bridge Station (mainline and tubes). Finish by 1900 at St Hugh’s Community Centre (42 Castledine Rd, London SE20 8PL, TQ346701). From the finish there is easy access to train stations at Crystal Palace, Penge West, and Anerley (overground lines with connections to tube stations)

This new route for 2022 is a walk of two halves. Beginning near Tower Bridge, the first part of the walk heads east to take in the sights along the banks of the River Thames, including London Docklands, Greenwich, and the Thames Barrier. The character of the walk then changes, wending through a string of parks, commons, meadows and woods, peppered with historical and architectural highlights. The route finishes with a quick tour of a historical area south of Crystal Palace Park and a hot drink and cake to finish the day. As with the original route, this new one strikes a balance between well-known areas of the city and hidden treasures; with a few surprises thrown in
