Hampstead Heath Leisurely Group
Bookings are no longer required, simply turn up to the meeting place.
This walk is suitable for people living with health conditions or mobility issues. Mobility aids welcome. Suitable for slower walkers. There is a sister walk (Hampstead Heath challenging walk) that goes from Hampstead Heath overground station at the same time. We recommend new walkers try this leisurely walk first and if they find it too easy, they can then try out the Hampstead Heath challenging walk.

Hampstead Heath Medium Walk
• Thursdays 11am
• Meeting point: Parliament Hill Café

This walk is a medium length, sometimes venturing all the way to Kenwood and often finishing with a cuppa at a local cafe. You can expect to finish at 12.15 to 12.30pm
For further information please visit Walking on Hampstead Heath — Hampstead Heath - Conservation, Community and Volunteering.
Hampstead Heath Challenging Group
This walk goes across the Heath following a different route each week, often diverging from the main paths, so be prepared for uneven ground and walking uphill. After about an hour, the group stops for refreshments at Kenwood or Parliament Hill Café, occasionally venturing further afield to Golders Hill Park.
Participants can either make their own way home or join the walk leaders to return by a shorter route to the starting point opposite Hampstead Heath Overground station. Please wear shoes comfortable for walking in and bear in mind that the Heath can be muddy. You don’t need anything special but avoid open-toed shoes and smooth soles.

Likewise Walk
This walk will not be running between December and March 2024. It will start again in March, please feel free to contact us on the details below for more information.
If you’re looking to gently increase your physical activity and meet new people, our weekly excursions around the local area might be just the ticket. Walks start at the Likewise Hub and take in different local spots each week – we’re lucky to have some great green space nearby, and often stop for a coffee and a chat along the way.
We want our walks to be open to as many people as possible. A Likewise team member will be present in the group if you have any questions along the way, but if there’s anything else we can do to support you to attend please let us know.
