bookings@dunstablebogtrotters.co.uk
Our Thames path journey is resuming with our third walk in the series of walks that started at Woolwich Ferry and will eventually finish at Hampton Court. Todays walk explores the Thames Path between Blackfriars Bridge and Albert Bridge, with detours to explore parts of Westminster, Battersea Park and Chelsea. Details of train times etc will be confirmed nearer the time. The walk finishes at Sloane Square so if using the underground to get back to a mainline station you will need either a travel card or Oyster card. Bring a packed lunch .
