THE EXPERIENCE

This collection of three high-class routes in the West End of London takes you through the grandeur of Regency London architecture, through the wonderful landscaped gardens of Regent’s Park, the shopping areas of Marylebone and Oxford Street, and then through the affluent areas in Mayfair to Hyde Park Corner.






ROUTES

The BBC, Regent’s Park & Baker Street - 3.1 km.

This route takes you up past the BBC and the stunning Regency architecture of Portland Place into the beautifully landscaped Regent’s Park with its delightful gardens, before finishing at Baker Street close to the  Sherlock Holmes Museum and Madame Tussauds .



Marylebone and Oxford Street Shopping - 3.1 km.

This route reveals three sides of London: the village-like feel of Marylebone High Street to the north and the bustle of Oxford Street shoppers to the south, with the calmness of Wigmore Street, and the Walace Collection in the middle



Hyde Park, Mayfair and Shepherd Market - 3.0 km.

Discover the main areas of Mayfair from Marble Arch to Hyde Park Corner. Explore Mayfair, which is famous for its affluent residents, luxury and high-end shopping streets, great restaurants and bars, and Georgian and Victorian architecture.



ABOUT THE ACROSS LONDON MARATHON

The Across London Visual Marathon takes in most of London’s iconic sights, from the Thames Barrier in the east to Hyde Park in the west. It’s designed to help you discover London with purpose, immersing you in the city’s rich history, vibrant culture, and visual splendour through interactive self-guided routes.


The Across London Visual Marathon comprises 16 short, interconnecting self-guided routes – an ideal way to explore London, whether you choose a single route, a collection, or embark on the entire journey in one go. These routes form four distinct collections: East London, the City of London, Central London, and the West End of London, each with its own unique history and character. All routes are manageable in length, clearly mapped with multiple navigation tools, and begin and end at easily identifiable Underground stations. With QR quick-reference links and detailed information at your fingertips, you can explore with complete confidence.
