This pathway has piqued the interest of intrepid London walkers for years due to its combination of multiple elements of a quality trek: hills with views, deep woodland, and graffitied ruins. Start right off with a cardio-pumping climb to the Rose Garden at Alexandra Palace, then head downward to pass through two ancient woodlands that feature cordoned-off tunnels replete with some hilariously incongruous street art, statues, and abandoned toys. The final bit brings you along a verdant stretch of long-disused railway tracks, eventually spilling out into Finsbury Park.
