Skyline Views & Rooftop Brews: V&A, Vic park, Thames, Docklands & Cable Car🍻

**DESCRIPTION** Join us for a relaxed summer adventure through some of East London's most exciting cultural, riverside and skyline locations. We'll start at V&A East Storehouse, giving everyone the opportunity to arrive early and explore this fascinating new addition to London's cultural scene before we set off. From there, we'll head through the beautiful open spaces of Victoria Park, one of London's most loved parks, before making our way south towards the River Thames. The route then follows the Thames Path, taking us around the Isle of Dogs with fantastic waterside views, a mix of historic docklands and modern city architecture, and plenty of opportunities for photos and conversation. We'll continue past the iconic Millennium Dome (The O2) before crossing the river in style on the IFS Cloud Cable Car, enjoying panoramic views across London from above the Thames. To round off the day, we'll finish at a rooftop bar, where those who wish can relax with a well-earned drink while taking in spectacular views. **WHAT TO EXPECT - HIKING INFO** Distance: **16km** Ascent: c.**44m** Estimated Duration 4-5 hours depending on drink and ice cream stops.
