Step 1: 🚨 This route over the locks is closed until mid 2025 while lock gates are replaced. Walkers will have to follow the alternative lock-free and step-free route while this work is ongoing. Swipe up below to access the alternative 🚨
Step 2: Begin this walk at Royal Albert Station on the DLR. This section is quite flat and less than 4 miles/6km. It explores the once very industrial area of Beckton, the former docks, the River Thames and the foot tunnel at Woolwich.
Step 3: As well as being able to explore the University of East London campus, there are unbeatable views of planes landing and taking off at London City Airport. Kids will love this!
Step 4: The start of the section is quarter of a mile away. Follow signs to exit the DLR station in the direction of Becton through the metal fence.
Step 5: Cross Royal Albert Way at the lights. Turn right and then left to take the first exit from the roundabout up Stansfield Road.
Step 6: Cross Stansfield Road at the zebra to reach a large Capital Ring signpost which marks the start of section 15. Keep ahead in Beckton Park.
