Chris HainesAugust 23, 2015An amazing Park that's huge! Perfect on sunny days for picnics and treks! The scenic view from the top of the hill is beautiful and we'll worth the climb! It's great to look over London in the sun!

Matt Ta-MinSeptember 8, 2017Wonderful view out over London with loads of space for walks & picnics. The hill is not too steep, but provides a decent level of resistance for a challenging jog. It's popular with dog walkers.Upvote35Downvote

JETApril 14, 2015One of my favourite places in London. It can get a little crowded these days but if you go mid-morning to early afternoon on a weekday you may get some solitude. Camden is only a short walk away.Upvote2Downvote

Pam LinFebruary 27, 2018This is on the North Side of Regents Park. Good for a warmer day, you can walk up the hill and see the city from the north looking south. The park is in lots of movies. Don't go when its cold or rainyUpvoteDownvote

Nilson RogérioMarch 6, 2015The best view of Central London & The City, bar none. Other central parks lack a hill. SW London (Wimbledon, Crystal Palace...) may give you a nice view of the east but PH is the best for the west.Upvote1Downvote
M UJanuary 7, 2017Lovely view and fresh air. Been there for the New Year's Eve. Perfect spot to watch the fireworks if you want to avoid the overcrowded streets.

The views, oh the views. Obviously this is better on a clear sunny day. If you're feeling up for it, do a few runs up and down the hill. Or, just watch others do it.UpvoteDownvote

Ace for summer picnics — aim for the heathy bit in the middle at the top, bring all your supplies with you though it's a long walk down to the deli's and shops.
