The challenge

  • Trek a marathon along London’s Thames Path
  • Walk past iconic London sights like the Houses of Parliament
  • A 42km journey passing historic parkland, busy city and famous landmarks
  • Walk along the Thames from Hampton Court to iconic Millennium Bridge
  • Follow the River Thames and cross over several beautiful bridges

This is a tough 1 day challenge that will see you walking a marathon-distance from Hampton Court to Millennium Bridge. You’ll be following the Thames Path for 42km, which allows you to see the changing landscape from leafy areas of west London through to the bustling city sights further in the east. Our challenge starts near Hampton Court, and after passing Teddington Lock we will see the historic green space of Old Deer Park and Kew Gardens. After passing upmarket Chiswick and Barnes, you’ll continue through Putney and Wandsworth to the beautiful Battersea Park, before heading over the bridge to pass right next to the Houses of Parliament. Next, you’ll head through the hubbub of the South Bank, where you’ll see the famous sight of Millennium Bridge welcoming you to your finish point.
