The river - Enjoying London’s Rural Thames
London’s Rural Thames stretches from Hampton Court Palace - one of the great icons of Tudor England - to fashionable Chelsea Harbour. Enjoy world-famous attractions in a rural setting of parklands, sumptuous gardens and secluded green spaces. The strand that links them all is The Thames Path National Trail, the continuous, way-marked footpath which flanks the river on either side.

The river is a haven and a welcome retreat for walking, picnicking, boating, bird watching, cycling or simply lying in the sun and watching the world drift by.
See the Down by the river page.
