Get active in Lee Valley Regional Park


Lee Valley Regional Park makes being more active really easy. At twice the size of London's Royal Parks combined and with 26 miles of riverside trails, country parks, nature reserves and urban oases, there is no better place to challenge yourself. Go for a cycle ride, a run or a simple stroll - it is free 365 days a year and just waiting to be discovered.
 
Our 40 routes cover a range of distances and terrains and celebrate the diversity and beauty of the Regional Park, where nature, leisure and sport sit successfully side by side.
