Take a Walk on Hackney's Wild Side

Are you looking for a fun way to explore Hackney and its green and wild spaces? Check out these new guides to Wild Walks for children in Hackney, including one across King's Park - through Hackney Marshes and Kingsmead.

The three new guides can be downloaded here. They cover: 

• Haggerston to Hoxton to see a giant snake and a mysterious stone circle

• The Hackney Marshes and Kingsmead route to discover hidden playgrounds and the perfect spot for flying a kit

• The Woodberry Down and West Reservoir walk to encounter wizards and watery wonders

The walks were inspired by a Hackney Council worker's childhood trips to the Lake District and aim to get our children interested in exploring Hackney in an active way. You can read a bit more about their development here. 

If you enjoy the walk let us the Council know on twitter using #HackneyWildWalks or on facebook - www.facebook.com/hackneyfis
