Summary

The Jubilee Greenway is a walking route in London, England, officially launched in 2009. The continuous route links the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic venues with parks, waterways, and other city attractions. By making use of existing walking and cycling routes wherever possible, the Jubilee Greenway begins at Buckingham Palace, joining Green Park, Hyde Park, and Kensington Gardens before connecting to Paddington Station and the Grand Union Canal at Little Venice. Following the Regent’s Canal through Camden, the greenway continues through East London and Victoria Park to the River Thames, where the Woolwich Foot Tunnel connects Greenwich and the South Bank to the Jubilee Walkway at Tower Bridge, returning to St James’s via Westminster.
