Hidden City Walking Map
Hidden City Walking Map
Guide to the Pedestrian pathways, high walkways and hidden passages of the Square
The City of London is one of the most walkable parts of London and has hundreds of dedicated pedestrian ways.
In collaboration with the City of London Corporation, Living Streets and the Ramblers we have designed a Hidden City Walking Map that we hope will encourage you to explore, enjoy and travel the City, uncovering hidden gems and scenic routes.
The map has been designed to show those in the City (workers, visitors and residents of the City) the most pedestrian friendly places, where you can discover green and tranquil areas.
The pedestrian pathways and zones, high walkways and quiet streets are highlighted in different colours and can be used to travel anywhere within the square mile by foot.
The walking time scale can be used to estimate the length of your journey. Using the pedestrian-friendly routes can often be quicker.
Quiet streets are often side streets with relatively few motor vehicles.
High-level walkways can be found mainly at the Barbican and Lower Thames Street.
The key areas highlighted on the map
The Barbican, The Eastern Cluster, The Thames Path and The Western Cluster.
So whether you need to get to or from work, go out for lunch or visit one of the City’s attractions, this map will help show you the best walking route.
