Produktbeschreibung

A professional walking guide shares twenty one of the best guided walks along the British capital's scenic waterways, packed with beautiful sights. Meandering through the London metropolis are the city's many waterways. From the mighty Thames to tranquil streams, from historic wharves to buzzing docklands, the twenty one walks in this book follow these waters, revealing a hidden London full of history, discovery, and surprises. Professional walking guide Gilly Cameron-Cooper has carefully selected the best routes to uncover the capital's distinct waterways. An enthusiastic explorer, she will lead you alongside docks, rivers, and canals in the footsteps of Roman traders, Tudor adventurers, and Victorian engineers. These paths will take you past iconic landmarks, great feats of engineering, and a variety of lesser-known treasures. London's rivers and canals were once pulsing arteries of industry, but today they provide a haven for wildlife and walkers alike. Here you will find green and peaceful retreats by the water, just moments away from the bustle of sprawling suburbia.
