Thames Path

As its name suggests, the 185-mile Thames Path follows the River Thames, starting at the Cotswolds, continuing through the English countryside, winding its way through Central London, and finishing at the Thames Barrier in Southeast London. The 10.5-mile stretch from Putney to Tower Bridge along the south bank of the river is ideal for urban sightseers as the easy path passes historical sights, including the Houses of Parliament and the London Eye.
