Fantastic walks and views over London Many different types of paths and levels of difficulty Wheelchair friendly and excellent facilities for wheelchair users The park is so big it would take many visits before you could claim to have explored the whole park Car parking can be difficult at busy times

A very large urban nature preserve with a ton of trails. Depending where you are in the park, you can see part of the central London Skyline including the London eye. There are a variety of trees, plants, ponds, birds, wildlife and picnic areas. If you are lucky you will see deer as well. Well worth a visit.

Nice park to have long walks and enjoy nature with your family or dog. Great spots around the park for picnics. Around August/Sept you'll be able to see deer and fawns in a distance. Don't approach cause they are wild animals. You will also encounter daredevil cyclists on the roads. So advice caution when driving through Richmond Park. Parking can be a bit competitive but be patient and you'll get a spot. Dogs and their owners tend to have their dogs off leash. 99% very friendly social dogs so do respect the dogs. Don't kick or hit any dogs approaching you, your dog or your children. When walking .. do take care, some dog owners don't pick up after their dogs. Lastly.. when you're leaving, stop by the main cafe and get some doggy ice cream (if you have a dog)

Super huge park with lots of greenery, gigantic old trees, deers, swans and other types of birds with a small coffee shop in the middle of the area. Perfect for sunny day out, picnic and sport activities such as running and cycling.

Apart from being London's best park and hiking trail, Richmond Park also has a lot of deer! You'll bump into them on your way through to the beautiful Pembroke Lodge, or towards the ponds, or even driving through. A great way to spend a day in the warmer seasons.

Amazing park that is massive and peaceful with deer's and shops you can get refreshments if needed. You can also see st Paul's cathedral through the telescope and of course see some beautiful flowers. It is well worth the visit I travelled over an hour to visit it and thought it was worth it.
