London Summer Walk 2025
Get active & explore some of the Capital’s historic areas with a tour of the ‘gateway to London’ along the Thames’s eastern
section at the London Summer Walk Ultra Challenge.
Starting alongside the grandeur of Woolwich Royal Artillery Barracks (short walk from the new Elizabeth Line station!) – the full 50km looped route heads through Charlton, along the Thames Path to Greenwich and the O2, Old Royal Naval College & the fabulous Cutty Sark, then onwards through central London – crossing the Thames via the Millenium footbridge. It’s then past the Tower of London, and on to the Olympic Park, before returning to Woolwich via the foot tunnel. A route steeped in history with iconic sights, and capped with a BBQ & bar at the finish – making for a wonderful end of summer celebration!

Important information from the event organiser
All sponsorship goes directly to the Charity via your online fundraising page. At least 50% of the sponsorship target should be with the Charity 3 week prior to the Challenge. At this time, the Charity agrees to pay a fee for your place to the Organiser (similar to the Self Funding cost – or half of it for Mixed Funding as you’ve already covered half). Failure to meet the deadline may result in cancellation of your place by the charity. The remaining 50% and any extra, should be with your Charity by 4 weeks after the Challenge.
This event is organised by Action Challenge.
