We are GOC London, and you can't really get much more 'London' than this walk, which is particularly suitable for the winter's months and avoids the deep mud that is likely to be filling up the Home Counties!

The walk is easy graded walk and runs through the large areas of green space in Central London's with loads of historic interest en route. We start at Charing Cross station, then pass successively through St James's Park, Green Park and then Hyde Park and its neighbour Kensington Gardens. We then have a section of road walking through the streets of the Paddington area to reach Little Venice and the Regent Canal. We make a detour off the canal to visit our 5th Royal Park of the day, before crossing to Primrose Hill and the only real hill of the walk. Its high point has excellent views over London, making an appropriate end to the walk. We will then seek out a suitable hostelry for late festive season refreshments. Primrose Hill is only a short walk from Chalk Farm tube station.
