By bicycle from Canary Wharf to London

Ready for a city spin? This route takes you from the slick skyscrapers of Canary Wharf right into the vibrant heart of London. It’s about 11.4 km—perfect for a breezy ride without feeling rushed. Most of your way is on smooth, paved cycleways (so points for comfort!), with only a couple of short stretches on busier roads.

You’ll head west along the Thames, getting great riverside views and a front-row seat to London’s ever-changing skyline. Watch for iconic spots like Tower Bridge as you pedal past historic Docklands and into the bustle of central London.

There’s a gentle ascent and descent along your ride, but nothing too intense (we’re talking less than 100 meters up or down). With both start and end surrounded by landmarks—Canary Wharf being London’s modern financial hub, and your destination smack in historic Westminster—you’ll definitely feel you’ve done the city in style. Happy cycling!
