The Parkland Walk is the longest linear nature reserve in London at 4km in length, and follows the former railway line connecting Finsbury Park to Alexandra Palace which opened in 1873. Its fame is now global as it often features on ‘must do’ lists for visitors from oversees. At times it can be quite busy and weekends bring walkers, dog walkers, runners and cyclists all out to take advantage of the weather and escape from the urban hullabaloo.
Parkland Walk
Throughout 2020 Ben Wilson, famous for his miniature artworks created on discarded chewing gum, has been creating pictures along the Parkland Walk. Each tiny piece of art is a reflection of the character and history of the Parkland Walk with brightly coloured animals and plant life and references to its past as a railway line. The project has been funded through crowd funding and attracted just short of a hundred donations.
