Overview

This is a delightful circular walk on Hampstead Heath. At the start of the walk and upon entering the Heath, we will get to a high point where we can admire lovely views over London. We will also pass various swimming ponds until we reach Kenwood House, where we will stop for a nice tea/coffee break. We will then start making our way back via the Avenue of Lime trees to Hampstead Heath Station. It’s quite hilly so a good level of fitness is needed.

Toilets: Public toilets on Hampstead Heath near the ponds and at Kenwood House.
