You’ll start your journey at Richmond Station, heading up Richmond Hill to soak in the famous protected view over the Thames. You'll pass the grand Star and Garter building as you enter the park through Richmond Gate.
From there, follow the Queen’s Ride to White Lodge, the historic home of the Royal Ballet Lower School, before cutting across to the park's centre to see the wildlife at Pen Ponds. You'll then loop back to Pembroke Lodge for lunch, making sure to stop at King Henry’s Mound nearby to spot St Paul’s Cathedral through the telescope.
After lunch, you’ll exit the park and descend through the Terrace Gardens to the Victoria Embankment. Follow the riverside path past the iconic Richmond Bridge and stroll back through the town to finish your loop at Richmond Station.
