Trip Overview
A scenic half marathon through the deer-filled parkland of Richmond Park. This is our gentlest trekking event — a half marathon distance walk through London's largest Royal Park, with herds of red and fallow deer, ancient oak trees, and surprisingly wild scenery just 10 miles from central London. Perfect for absolute beginners, team building days, or groups wanting a scenic walk with a real sense of achievement. The terrain is flat to gently rolling, with well-maintained paths throughout. Finishing a half marathon distance is a meaningful achievement that anyone can train for.

"This was my first time cycling with Adventure Cafe; first time riding from London to Paris and my first time riding this sort of distance over 3 days. Lots of preparation had gone into this from AC prior to departing London."
