If have nothing to do, this such a nice walk, can get a bit pongy at times, but this is broken up by seeing the canal boats. More

Arriving early morning, we decided to soak up some sun and battle jet lag with a nice walk. Making it more enjoyable and interesting was a podcast for London Walks that included the walk from Little Venice to Camden Locks via Regents Canal. Beautiful trees along the way. A nice peaceful walk. The long boats were fun to see and... More

Looking for an authentic London walk that's away from the typical touristy circus in the West end? Next Saturday, take the tube to Angel and walk east along the Regent's canal to Broadway Market. Along the way you'll see narrowboats navigating the canal's locks, London's bohemian set sipping coffee on top of their converted houseboats, and hip cyclists heading to... More

What more could you want on a sunny day - or even one that is gloomy? There is a lovely barge to eat on if it really pours. Good food is served in a pleasant atmosphere by lovely staff. There is a host of wildlife to see and the barges moored by the canal are evocative of a different manner... More

A little oasis in busy London - go to Warwick Ave on The Tube, walk up to the canal, and hop on the waterbus for a 50 minute trip through this exclusive part of London. Pass huge houses on the edge of Regents Park, a beautiful Mosque, and through the zoo -( you can get off here if you want... More

Having lived in London for many years and walking regularly through Regents Park I all ways avoided this route in favour of the more populated and open air parks. However, on a pleasant spring day I was persuaded to take this and how brilliant it was. We joined the path by Regents Park and walked East towards Islington through Camden.... More

This is a great 2 hour roundtrip along a section of Regents Canal, including the locks. Lots of history provided by canal barge tour guide, makes a great day out whilst visiting the area of Camden Town. More
