Hidden London Walks 2

Status:Active, open to new members
When: Monthly on Thursdays
3rd Thursday - all day
Venue: Various

What: This group undertakes walks in London of about 2.5 miles to include places of interest away from the usual tourist hot spots. Two and a half miles is about right to allow time for stopping and focussing on points of interest. The first three walks were led by the group leader, but a rota began January 2025 so that over the course of the year all group members take turns, usually in pairs, to lead. Last year, we walked around Marylebone, Farringdon and Bloomsbury. In April and May we shifted our focus East to the City of London.

Help and guidance will be provided if you need advice on planning your first walk. We normally travel by train so a Senior Railcard is an advantage. We meet in a coffee shop and aim to start the walk by 11.00am.
