About The Line

The Line is a free, open-air art trail that starts (or finishes) on Greenwich Peninsula by The O2 and follows East London's waterways and the line of the Greenwich Meridian up to Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in Stratford. Along the way you'll find monumental sculptures and installations by leading international artists, set among creeks, wildflowers, docks and bridges. It takes around four hours to walk the whole route, but you can do it in sections, and the London Cable Car makes a fun link between North Greenwich and the Royal Docks. The artworks change, as do the seasons and the tides, so it's always worth coming back. The Line is a registered charity that also runs community events, workshops and exhibitions.
