A one-day marathon walk from Greenwich in the East to Richmond in the West. Our route includes the famous sights and landmarks of London – The O2, Cutty Sark, Tower Bridge, Houses of Parliament, London Eye and Battersea Power Station to name a few. A half-marathon option is also available if required.
Don’t forget, all of our events are bespoke, that means anything you see on this page can be adapted to your requirements.
‘I have had nothing but compliments from walkers and the Team. The organisation of the walk before and on the day was absolutely flawless.’ – NABS Walk & Talk
This route offers plenty of flexibility and isn’t limited to the example shown here. We can design a route to your specific brief. The options are endless, what you’ll find below is simply a typical itinerary.
Hikers arrive early at the start location in Greenwich to register with the pie crew. Light snacks are provided, but we recommend eating breakfast before you arrive – it’s going to be a long day!
Once registered, you will move through to the briefing zone where our crew will go through some last minute hints and tips for the day, along with guidance on health and safety. Its then out onto the Thames Path as you begin the marathon walk!
You’ll be walking for anything between 8-12 hours – this includes stopping at the regular refreshment areas we will provide during the day. Behind the scenes, our support crew will also be on hand to provide assistance where required, and of course Event Control is just a phone call away!
Finally, the finish line comes into view and it’s soon time to put your feet up and sit down for a well-deserved celebratory drink and BBQ!
Of course, we can provide pre & post-event accommodation, along with a luggage transfer service and travel back to the start if required – it’s your hike – and we deliver to your specifications!
The route continues through Hanover Place, home to the playful Girl with a Pierced Eardrum, before looping back to the city centre. Perfect for art lovers and curious explorers alike, this trail combines a scenic urban stroll with the thrill of a street art treasure hunt. This route invites you to see the city in a new light, tracing the work of an artist whose bold creativity continues to provoke thought, laughter, and conversation.

Jason Bacon16/09/2026My 9th PIE organised cycle challenge for the 40tude charity. Another spectacularly organised PIE ride. The way the team and guides handled and responded to all the surprises and challenges thrown their way, making everything smooth for us punters was extraordinary. And very much appreciated. The most professional and friendly group of tour managers, support team and cycle guides. Well done to the whole PIE team and Paul & Tina. You are simply the best.Posted on Google
Greg Martin16/09/2026Event team did a great job coping with air traffic meltdown in the UK, storms in Slovenia and road closures from visiting diplomats. accommodating, feeding and moving over 30 people on a daily basis is no easy task and they do it very well! Kudos to Paul and team.Posted on Google
James Purves16/09/2026This is probably my 6th rode with pie. They always have things organised and when something isn’t quite right it is fixed quickly and with lots of communication. Paul and the team were brilliant in Slovenia with us all. When you are cycling and out of your comfort zone the last thing you want is to worry about the logistics and pie do that all for you. Thanks And see you soon at the next ride!Posted on Google
Richard Plaistowe05/09/2026Pie Events helped me organise the Branditos networking cycles at the International Trademark Association Annual Meeting in London, and sorted routes and guides. Tje rides were thoroughly enjoyable and professionally guided (and 100% safe) Riders from all over the world participated and everyone was effusive in their praise. A fantastic success thanks to Pie Events.Posted on Google
Daniel Osmer27/07/2026I've just completed my second 4-day group ride managed by pie. Again, it was a fantastic experience. The 3 person pie team - a trip co-ordinator, ride guide, and on-bike medic - were all top professionals as well as great fun. It was another great trip which the whole team enjoyed. I highly recommend pie.Posted on Google

Whether Medical, Portering, Providing Food (paying attention to dietary requirements) and Drink (morning coffee, regular rehydration electrolyte tabs, soft drinks at lunch, alcoholic beverages at the end of the day - if you like that sort of thing), excellent hotels & restaurants, - all needs catered for. Staff - highly sympathetic & empathetic - who convert a steep hill into a mere undulation. All staff were immaculately turned out in identical uniforms. Bike maintenance - Brilliant Route planning - beautiful lanes, B roads, cycle paths - superb routes.
