Overview
Greater London is an area steeped in history, and it could be argued the best way to see most of it is either on foot or on a bicycle, so not surprisingly it offers one of the best networks of off road walking in any British city. The Thames Path National Trail provides a classic route through the heart of London, and the Capital Ring and Jubilee Walkway are just two of the many other routes offering alternative views of the city. There are many opportunities for walking in green spaces too, with major parks like Hampstead Heath and Epping Forest, as well as the famous eight Royal Parks offering 5,000 acres of historic parkland in the heart of the capital.
