Overview

A leisurely paced walk with brief stops en route to enjoy the views and points of interest along the way. From Perivale station we make our way up Horsenden Hill, taking in the Gruffalo trail and a couple of great views. We descend the hill then cross Horsenden meadows to the Grand Union Canal.

We traverse Paradise Fields (and see the preparations for the re-introduction of beaver later this year) then follow the canal to Northolt where a small hill takes us up to St Mary’s church. From there it is a short walk to Northolt station.

There is an option to stop at the Crown pub in Northolt just before the end of the walk for a drink or lunch.
