London Dog Walking Favourite Walks

London, with its large number of parks and tree lined avenues, has some great walks for your dog. Kensington dog walks has a number of historic sights, beautiful avenues and places where famous people lived. Kensington Gardens Dog Walks is a great place to start. Lady Di lived in Kensington Palace and nearby are many parts of her short memorable life.

Kensington Gardens cover 245 acress (111 hectares) and is full of avenues with trees and ornamental flower beds. It is also home to the Albert memorial, Italian gardens, Peter Pan statue and the Serpentine Gallery.

Kensington Palace has a great history from 1605 until today and is one of the most beautiful palaces.

Then there is Hyde Park and the Serpentine. You can then cross via the Duke of Wellington's Old House (though the current Duke lives in part of it), Apsley House, and through Wellington Arch into Green Park, before moving past Buckingham Palace and some great horses into St James Park.

Whilst at Hyde Park Corner, look at the other war memorials that are there. The Royal Artillery, the large Australian and the most recent, the New Zealand Memorial.

You can either walk through Green Park or along Constitution Hill, although historically both routes were dangerous. Queen Victoria had three attempted assassinations here in the 1840s and the park was used by highwaymen and thieves.

Buckingham Palace, one of the great London landmarks, is a good spot to see some beautiful horses as well.

St James Park, the oldest Royal Park, is next with everything from music and pelicans to ducks and a beautiful lake with views.

There is an interesting walk along the embankment too. The Victoria Embankment Gardens, beside the Embankment underground station, is a small garden which was built on recovered land from the River Thames. You can see a 17th century watergate that is now a 100 yards from the Thames.
