Location: Stroud Green, England

This point-to-point run follows the Parkland Walk and connecting trails, linking Finsbury Park and Alexandra Palace stations. Mostly traffic-free, the route follows the course of a former railway line through woodland and green spaces, passing old railway bridges, platforms and tunnels along the way. With gentle gradients and a mixture of compacted paths and paved sections, it offers a peaceful escape from the city while remaining easily accessible by public transport.

Great run mostly on gravel but also mostly covered by tree canopy to escape the sun. Minimal road crossings and excellent views of London city. Gradual uphill most of the way or gradual downhill if you start at Ally Pally

Shoe suggestion: Road
