Vauxhall Bridge Loop (Short)

2.5 km·intermediate·short route·Loop

Short loop upstream to Vauxhall Bridge and back. Stay close to the bank — Thames Clippers pass through here at speed. Keep out of the centre channel.

Tidal strategy: Best paddled on the flood tide (upstream, towards the turn point), turning at high water slack, then riding the ebb back.
