Overview

We will meet outside of Hendon Central Station.  There are lots of coffee and breakfast options for early risers.  We quickly leave the hustle and bustle of what is allegedly the noisiest road in Britain, and head into the greenery of Brent Park.  We follow the brilliantly named Mutton Brook with bursts of suburbia interspersed with greenery until we reach Highgate.  There is a superb community cafe/theatre stop for lunch

The afternoon starts along a converted rail track before we walk beside Woodberry Wetands and the West Reservoir. We soon find ourselves in Abney Park Cemetery and a great coffee shop very close to our final end of Stoke Newington Station

This is a no dog walk
