Walks

Discovery by foot

We run free monthly cultural walking tours, suitable for those with accessibility requirements, to celebrate the cultural depth and diversity present in the local area. Discovery by foot!

The borough is only six by two miles so walking or cycling are often the quickest, easiest and most interesting ways to get around. So why not try one of our award winning cultural tours on foot?

Shepherds Bush Regeneration Tour - 13th December
Shepherds Bush Regeneration takes in the new plans for the Green itself, starting next Spring, when £3 million will be spent on new sports and leisure facilities, plus new landscaping to help screen the traffic. It will look at the townscape around the Green which is a conservation area and Hammersmith Park which will have a makeover in time for the London 2012 Olympics. The walk is rounded off with a stroll through the new Westfield London shopping centre, decked out for it's first Christmas.
Tours meet at 2pm at Shepherds Bush Tube Station (Central Line) Shepherds Bush Green exit.

Experience the Thames

Rural Thames- from Chelsea to Hampton Court 

London's Rural Thames stretches from Hampton Court Palace - one of the great icons of Tudor England - to fashionable Chelsea Harbour. Within this span of 22.5 miles the river rolls out a dazzling string of world-famous attractions in a rural setting of vast parklands, sumptuous gardens and secluded green spaces which delights visitors and takes most Londoners by surprise.  

You can take London's Rural Thames in bite-size chunks on a day off or when you have an afternoon to spare, or you can follow the whole length of The Thames Path from Hampton Court to Chelsea in a long weekend.
