You can also follow the routes from your phone using our digital map, available here.

Rail & Heritage Loop

We partnered with Buro Happold to create a new circular walking route for London. It links London’s largest stations and seeks out engineering marvels so you can see the value of STEM in shaping our world. More here.

Hackney Central Footways

This beautiful printed map can be picked up for free from Hackney Museum and Hackney’s public libraries.

Westminster Footways

We teamed up with Westminster City Council to create an interactive digital map to help people to walk more and explore the city.

The map is also a great guide to Westminster's history, architecture, culture, and green spaces, revealing intriguing features hidden in plain sight. Explore the map here
