Very easy, nice views but along a busy road.

This is a great route, I'm just concerned about the accuracy of the plotting around London Bridge. I've uploaded an alternative that is more accurate.

A short walk, with a lovely view of Tower Bridge from London Bridge. It's easy to walk, although going up and down the bridge has a little bit of an incline.

I agree with the first review - this extremely short route provides spectacular views. Once over the bridge going south, there are multiple ways to get to the Shard, with the smoothest being up Railway Approach, rather than Duke Street Hill which the physical route implies.

A very straightforward and easy way to get from point to point, including great river views.
