Thames River Scoot - Albert Bridge to Wandsworth Bridge

We covered this in two sections, although the combination is only 2 miles one way, and would be feasible to scoot this in one longer stretch with young children. The scooting here is of the highest standard, with a wide, smooth pavement type walkway for most of the journey alongside The Thames, and at the time we covered these sections over the weekend, it was uncrowded. We came across a couple of barge homes on the river, and enjoyed the different styles of architecture and variety of engineering feats in bridge building - from suspension to roman archways.

The helipad section is an exciting highlight with close up views of helicopters flying in along the river and landing at close range. Thai on The River is a good stop off point with Fred Wells Gardens behind offering free use of tennis courts, a children's play park or even an opportunity to barbecue!
