Overview

A varied walk with some moderate hills, good views, lots of famous ponds, historic woods, a beautifully restored mansion, a hill garden and a pergola. Mainly good paths but at this time of year there are inevitably some muddy patches. Coffee break at Kenwood House and lunch in Golders Hill Park (picnic or cafe). Plenty of pubs and cafes at the end of the walk in Hampstead village.
