Positives:

  • Pram-friendly routes: Wide paved paths across the lower park suit jogging prams.
  • Baby-change facilities: Multiple toilets and cafés offer free changing tables.
  • Shaded seating: Chestnut and herb garden areas provide cool, shady spots.

Challenges:

  • Steep Observatory hill: Incline is too steep for most prams; skip the summit walk.
  • Muddy paths after rain: Lower park paths get slippery; use rubber-wheel prams or the buggy service.

The mix of history, open s...

Free and easier on Sundays just outside t...

Greenwich park has arguably one of the best views in London, where you can get to see basically all of the city, but principally Canary Wharf and even the O2 arena. Entering the observatory museum is definitely worth it. And undeniably this park is a must see in London to escape a little the center of the city and the busyness of Westminster.
