Thames Path

Thames Head to London's Thames Barrier

The Thames Path is a national trail that runs for 294km (184 miles) from the river’s source near Kemble in the Cotswolds to the Thames Barrier in London. With magnificently varied scenery and passing so many ancient sites, this is as much a walk through history as an easy ramble beside a river.
