Overview

Join us for a leisurely, scenic walk from Hanwell Station to Perivale Station via a number of parks and green spaces along the River Brent,  looking for signs of beavers (at Paradise Fields) and Gruffalos (on Horsenden Hill).   

New members very welcome to join the walk, plenty of drop out opportunities (bus or tube).  No need to book.

The walk ends at Perivale Station (5.3 miles) with an optional extension (1 mile) to Pitshanger Lane where there are plentiful cafes.   Note: This is section 2 of  The Round Ealing Circuit (TREC).
