Bushy Park is a beautiful Royal Park that is home to 300 deer but it is also the home of parkrun. Not only is this the original parkrun but it is also the fastest and the largest. Spanning 445 hectares, Bushy Park offers a quieter but equally rewarding running experience. Broad avenues, open grassland and long, straight paths make it ideal for steady efforts and longer runs, with routes easily adapted to suit different distances.
Surface: Crushed gravel, dirt paths, and some paved sections.
Terrain: Mostly flat with gentle undulations.
Toilets: Available near the Diana Fountain Kids playground and Pheasantry Café,
