Sunken Garden, Victoria Park

Highlight • Viewpoint

Just off the Sunday market

Tip by

1.59 km

The Royal Inn on the Park is the perfect place for a pitstop on a ride around Vicky Park. Its a grand building that's often very busy during the summer months, particularly the beer garden that overlooks the park. There's a great selection of drinks and the food is delicious.

Victoria Park Canal Path

Highlight • Trail

Plenty of benches to have a rest. Nice autumn colours.

Victoria Park Lake Fountain

Highlight • Lake

Easily reachable from the canal path, with a 4.5km loop or a number of ways to cut across the park. Flat or near enough, so good for some tempo/interval work if you're about that; if not, a wide main path makes it pretty stress-free. A couple of roads cross the park but they are rarely busy, and all have pedestrian crossings so shouldn't cause too much disruption.

Victoria Park Lake, Sculptures, and Pagoda

Highlight • Viewpoint

Victoria Park in Hackney is a large and attractive park with lakes, sculptures, a Chinese pagoda and numerous play areas. There's tasty food and drink at the Pavilion Cafe, including cakes and home-baked bread.

It's located at a junction of the Regent Canal and the Hertford Union Canal, which makes it ideal for walking or riding trips between Regents Park, Limehouse Basin and the Olympic Park.
