Spend a day in Greenwich Park, London

Greenwich Park is the oldest of London's Royal Parks. It covers 183 acres (74 hectares) and is home to a herd of Fallow and Red deer. You can spend a whole day in Greenwich Park, there are plenty of smaller gardens and sculptures to enjoy. If you walk round the outside of the park you will see some beautiful historic houses too. 

View of Canary Wharf

The view from up on the hill by Greenwich Observatory are outstanding. You can see the river Thames, St Paul's Cathedral and Canary Wharf. Greenwich Park is part of the Greenwich World Heritage Site, host to Prime Meridian Line and the Old Royal Observatory. The National Maritime Museum is also in the vacinity. 

The Royal Parks provide fantastic 'green' routes in London, taking cyclists away from traffic and through some of the most attractive areas of the capital. Cycling is allowed on ALL roads AND some specially designated cycle routes within the Parks. Many of the routes link in with the wider London Cycle Network. The most popular cycle route in Greenwich Park is Blackheath Avenue, The Avenue and Great Cross Avenue. Advice for considerate cyclists in the Greenwich Park.

Step back in time to Old London and enjoy a meal at the Trafalgar Tavern.
