Both had a role in both World Wars and Bushy Park has a fascinating history critical to the successful outcome of WWII find out more and a bit about our past monarchy as well! Walk is easy level ground, no stiles and there are many places to drop out and take a bus to a nearby station or town. We will stop at the Pheasantry cafe in Bushy Park part way round.
