about
A small project about paying attention.
walkwalk is a small independent project made in Kingston-upon-Thames, by Turker, one walk at a time. It started with a simple annoyance: every guide to London either reads like a leaderboard, or like a sponsored post, or like a fitness tracker has written it. None of them feel like the way I actually walk this city.
So this is the opposite of that. Every route here has been walked by the editor — no crowdsourced lists, no algorithmic ranking, no “top 10” anything. If a walk is on here, it’s because someone spent a morning on it, took notes at the bench halfway round, and thought it was worth telling you about.
What this is
A slow, hand-kept guide to walking London. Each route has a vibe, a story, and a short list of stops with editor’s notes — not reviews, not ratings, just the kind of thing you’d tell a friend who was visiting.
There’s also a light “what’s on” layer — the gigs, pop-ups, markets, and exhibitions that are actually worth your time this week. It’s not comprehensive. It’s curated.
What this isn’t
Not a fitness app. There are no calories, no step counts, no leaderboards. Not a booking platform. Not a TripAdvisor clone. Not a venture-funded anything. If you’re after turn-by-turn navigation or to log your 10,000 steps, you have excellent options elsewhere.
Write in
If you walk one of these and spot something we missed, or you’ve got a route you think should be on here, please write — hello@walkwalk.org. We read everything.
