Thames Bridges Trek

Trek across the Capital taking in unrivalled views of the skyline and historic landmarks. Setting out from Putney Bridge, head east towards the City, zig-zag over the array of 16 historic bridges - each with its own fascinating story - and a mid-point rest stop at Oval Cricket Grounds. It's then on to the finish line in Southwark Park past the final crossing - the majestic Tower Bridge.
