Other walks in the area

Walking The Celandine Way - Pinner to Eastcote

Walker
↔2.43 km ↗+4 m ↘-8 m ◔0h 40 ▲Easy
⚑Departure from London Borough of Harrow (Greater London)

This is the first section of a 12 mile walking route which follows the River Pinn from Pinner to Uxbridge. Of all Middlesex's 'lost rivers' the River Pinn is perhaps the most visible.

Walking The Yeading Brook

Walker
↔5.55 km ↗+12 m ↘-12 m ◔1h 35 ▲Easy
⚑Departure from London Borough of Harrow (Greater London)

This is a short urban walk exploring another of the 'lost landscapes of Middlesex'. The Yeading Brook rises at Headstone Manor and can be tracked all the way to Ruislip Gardens. This walk starts and finishes in West Harrow, and follows the most attractive section of the river through two pretty linear parks : The Yeading Brook Open Space and Streamside Recreation Ground.

Walking Sudbury Hill

Walker
↔6.24 km ↗+58 m ↘-58 m ◔1h 55 ▲Moderate
⚑Departure from London Borough of Harrow (Greater London)

This is a short urban walk exploring the 'lost landscapes of Middlesex'. I was recently introduced to a secret park which I never knew about, and realised this must be the summit of the original Sudbury Hill before it was swallowed up under the tide of suburban housing. The walk visits Elm Park and also takes you past the Harrow School sports fields. It starts and finishes near Harrow School, Harrow-on-the-Hill.

Walking The Wealdstone Brook

Walker
↔2.81 km ↗+0 m ↘-29 m ◔0h 50 ▲Easy
⚑Departure from London Borough of Harrow (Greater London)

The Wealdstone Brook is one of the lost rivers of Middlesex. It's a short urban walk, one of my 'lost landscapes' routes around the Harrow area. Ironically, there is no trace of the river left in Wealdstone itself, where it has all been culverted. However, it meanders very prettily through Woodcock Park in Kenton, surrounded by grassy banks and willow trees. This is the best bit! There are further glimpses of it along the route of this walk.

Walking Colne Valley Wildlife, Chilterns

Association or club
↔10.39 km ↗+41 m ↘-41 m ◔3h 05 ▲Moderate

Walking Rickmansworth Aquadrome to Cassiobury Park

Walker
↔14.18 km ↗+78 m ↘-74 m ◔4h 15 ▲Moderate
⚑Departure from Batchworth (Hertfordshire)

This walk starts at Ricky Aquadrome with its 3 lakes and goes along a delightful stretch of the River Chess, through Whippendell Woods (particularly nice in mid April when the bluebells are out), to Cassiobury Park with its 2 cafes and voted one of the 10 best parks in Britain and along short stretches of the River Gade and Grand Union Canal. Do allow plenty of time for exploring the many interesting features on this walk.

Walking Wild Flowers from Cassiobury Park

Association or club
↔7.52 km ↗+42 m ↘-44 m ◔2h 15 ▲Easy

Association or club
↔9.88 km ↗+48 m ↘-43 m ◔3h 00 ▲Easy
⚑Departure from Batchworth (Hertfordshire)
