Autumnal walk through Hampstead Heath

There’s something magical about the changing seasons, and the arrival of autumn will hopefully see bright blue skies, crisp fresh air and the crunch of leaves beneath your feet becoming a daily occurrence. Head north of The Marylebone for an escape from the city only 20 minutes away. With its wild meadows and dense woodland areas, it’s the perfect quiet spot to admire the changing colours of the trees as the new season arrives. The bathing ponds - mens, womens and mixed – are open throughout the autumn months too, although with temperatures averaging at 15°C, it’s not an activity for the fainthearted!
