MEETING POINT

We'll meet at Totteridge & Whetstone station at 10:30am (zone 4, Northern Line). You can access to this station using your Oyster Card or Contactless card.

This walk is covered by our Club's insurance. Our Club is registered on The British Mountaineering Council (BMC)

This walk, reachable by Underground, explores an area of greenbelt that would have been engulfed by the 1930s expansion of London's suburbia but for the resistance of local residents. The result is a large chunk of countryside that intrudes into London on the so-called Northern Heights - the hills above and behind the more famous ones of Hampstead and Highgate.

At one point on this walk you can actually look down on Alexandra Palace and Highgate Hill, and have the illusion that everything in between is still countryside.

DOG

Dogs can use this trail as well, but must be on a leash.
