Active & outdoors in London

London rewards the active traveller in ways that go well beyond a stroll through the parks. The Lee Valley VeloPark, built for the 2012 Olympics, lets visitors ride the same velodrome track used by world champions. Parliament Hill offers a sweeping view of the city skyline as a reward for those who walk the heath. Cricket devotees find their temple at Lord’s Cricket Ground, where the sport’s history is embedded in every worn wooden seat. And at Craven Cottage, watching a match with the Thames glimmering beyond the stands is one of those quietly extraordinary London moments. This is a city that reveals itself best when you keep moving.
