<London Loop>

Walking the London Outer Orbital Path (the LOOP for short) is a great way to get to know London better. At nearly 152 miles (245 km), some like to think of it as the ‘M25 for walkers’ — but it’s a world away from the motorway and has been thoughtfully divided into 24 well marked, bite-sized stages. Weaving around the capital the LOOP is mainly on flat or gentle sloping surfaces with only some sections requiring a bit more puff!

The LOOP Walk reveals relics of London’s colourful past from impressive stately residences such as Hall Place to emotive monuments like the Wilberforce memorial to the abolition of slavery. There’s even a shot tower once used to make gunpowder. You don’t have to be a military buff to enjoy a Thameside ‘graveyard’ for concrete D-Day barges or to explore Kenley Aerodrome, the atmospheric former wartime air base.
