Let's Walk - Poplar Canal Walk

About this Event

Event Description:

Start point and end point: e5 Poplar Bakehouse, 8a Cotall St, London E14 6TL, (What3Words: ///chemistry.cube.tower) Please meet us outside Poplar Union Cafe.

The walk, run by Canal & River Trust, will be led by volunteer walk leaders who are full of interesting information about the local area.

Please join us for a fun leisurely walk along the canal. You'll learn a lot and meet new people!

This Morning Walking Group is run by a local resident from the community to help start your day right.

This is an early morning walk for people in the local area. It’s great to start your day well, talk to some positive people and see the sun come up!

We’ll meet at 7.30am every Friday outside Poplar Bakehouse for a circuit walk. We’ll end up back at E14 Poplar Bakehouse at 8.30 where we’ll grab a coffee together.

There will always be someone from the community to meet you every Friday for a morning walk, or if it’s raining, a warm drink in the cafe.

The walk is accessible. Well behaved dogs on leads are welcome.

The great thing about walking is that you do not need any fancy equipment. However with all the fallen leaves the tow path (even if it is not raining) it can be muddy/slippy so stout shoes are really required (stronger than recommended).
