These mountain biking sessions are great if you want to experience the freedom of our mountain bike trails. The trails can be used with either your own bike or by hiring a venue bike. With five miles of rugged mountain bike trails and a skills section you can get to grips with your mountain biking skills.

🍂 RICHMOND PARK AUTUMN COLOURS & ISABELLA PLANTATION 🍁 FREE* HIKE

Join us for a relaxed but rewarding **17 km Sunday hike through Richmond Park** at one of the most spectacular times of year. 🍁 **THE AUTUMN COLOUR EXPERIENCE** Autumn transforms the park with rich reds, oranges, golds and browns, while **Isabella Plantation** becomes one of the highlights of the season. The Royal Parks specifically describes October as a peak period for autumn colour at Isabella, with the **Acer Glade** particularly spectacular as the Japanese maples turn scarlet, orange and gold. 🦅 **LOCAL KNOWLEDGE MATTERS** I've lived in Richmond for most of my life and know Richmond Park intimately. Rather than simply following the obvious route, we’ll explore a mixture of **well-known viewpoints, beautiful woodland, open parkland and quieter corners** that are easy to miss if you don’t know the park well. This is an English-speaking social hike for people who enjoy walking, nature, good conversation and discovering interesting places. 🌳 **WHAT WE'LL SEE** 🍁 **Isabella Plantation** — spectacular autumn colours 🌳 **Thomson’s Lawn** and the woodland garden 🍂 **The Acer Glade** — Japanese maples in brilliant autumn colour 💧 **Brownie’s Stream** and the Main Stream 🦌 **Richmond Park’s famous free-roaming deer** 🏞️ **Pen Ponds** and the surrounding parkland 🌿 **Tamsin Trail** and quieter sections of the park ✨ **King Henry’s Mound** & protected view of St Paul’s Cathedral 🍰 **Pembroke Lodge** and its Thames Valley views 🌅 **Richmond Hill** and the famous view over the Thames Valley 📍 **QUICK INFO** 📅 **Date:** Sunday 25 October 2026 📍 **Start:** Richmond Station — main entrance, by the taxis ⏰ **Meet:** 9:45 am \| **Start:** 10:00 am sharp 🥾 **Distance:** Approximately **17 km circular route** ⏱️ **Duration:** Around 4½–5 hours ⚖️ **Difficulty:** **Moderate** 🚶 **Pace:** Steady social walking pace 🚾 Various toilets available on the route 💷 **Price:** **FREE — [Registration Required](https://avalanx.es/experiencias/richmond-park)** *The route includes a number of gentle inclines and declines and is suitable for people who are comfortable walking 17 km over several hours.* 🚨 **REGISTRATION IS STRICTLY REQUIRED** Although this is a **FREE hike**, you must register through our platform to secure your place.
