Jubilee Greenway

A 60km / 37 mile walking and cycling route in London. It was completed in 2012 to mark the Diamond Jubilee of Elizabeth II. It starts at Buckingham Palace and goes via 2012 Olympic and Paralympic venues, making use of existing walking and cycling routes wherever possible.

This route is way-marked by 542 distinctive glass, pavement plaques. The Queen unveiled the special one outside Buckingham Palace in February 2012.
