Starting at Anerley Station near Crystal Palace, your guide will take you through the street art hubs of Penge, Forest Hill and Dulwich, stopping to admire, photograph and tell you more about the work you see.

Shoreditch is the best-known centre of London's urban art, but South London is a well-kept secret. It hosts a number of stunning murals on huge walls, often created during street art festivals by world-renowned artists.

We'll be taking you to the most breath-taking art on offer, and building up a sweat inbetween - what's not to love?!12km may seem daunting, but we will stop regularly to enjoy the art (and have a breather). You're welcome to join us for the first 7km and leave us at Forest Hill Station. But the route is downhill, ending in Peckham Rye.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY

Just done Street Art Tour of London, and loved it. Second run I’ve done with Vanessa (did LGBT history tour last year) and they’ve both been great. Nobody gets left behind and Vanessa is unfailingly cheerful too! Will definitely do some more.

CLAIRE STIBBON, 5* FACEBOOK REVIEW

"Had a fantastic time running around East London this afternoon with Vanessa on the Street Art running tour. This tour is jam packed with content. Vanessa has obviously researched the subject matter thoroughly and clearly enjoys delivering her tours (this is my second one so far). Highly recommend Secret London Runs for anyone."

CARIN WHITFIELD, FACEBOOK RECOMMENDATION

"Absolutely amazing fun ... Vanessa was so enthusiatically knowledgeable. I had never realised how much stunning street art was in London over what felt a really short distance. Lots of stops and photo opportunities. I had so much fun I will definitely be booking to join another run."
