This walk is all about looking back as we wander around Primrose Hill, Parliament Hill Fields, Kenwood, Highgate Woods, The Parkland Walk and Alexandra Palace.   This is a gentle easy paced walk that will allow us different views and perspectives of London as we progress north and upwards. 
There are opportunities for coffee stops on our way as well as some significant architecture.
