Unfortunately we no longer run a Thames Path and Ridgeway Guided Events Programme due to reduced budgets and declining attendances.

Below you will find details of events we are aware of on the Thames Path that are organised by others. Some of these are large charity fundraising events, others are guided walks. Please wear suitable footwear, clothing, and enough food and drink for the walk you intend to join.
