Southwark Park

Before we go home to Devon and after a fantastic weekend and experience watching Argyle play Chelsea we wandered east along the Thames path from Tower Bridge. Glad we did. Not as memorable as other parts of the path but we eventually ended up in this tranquil park....and they had a cafe!! Nice coffee, strange building! Nevertheless we sat overlooking a lake with the sun shining and thought about the wonderful weekend we had just had...

Southpark is an excellent park with that you need. It has an athletic center, gym center, kids playground, huge fields wherein one can play football, tennis courts, a bandstand, a Cafe, a kids community center, a ball game and even a gallery

I like Southwark Park especially for our flying friends such as birds, ducks, and swans living there.

Also, there are workout facilities and small hills to walk around, exercise, and relax.

Flowers and trees in the Park are beautiful 😍 and lively 💖 as well.

Was my starting point for viewing the Queen laying in state. A very beautiful park….if not full of crowds, definitely perfect for walks, and maybe a summer picnic (if allowed). A part of London I had never been to before so was nice to see a pretty part rather than buildings.

How old are those trees? How cozy one feels with the sun or the moon filtering through the branches? How many couples kissed there for the first time? So many questions going through your mind while walking slowly to breathe the peaceful surroundings.
Very much recommend visiting.
I feel romantic.

One of my favourite places to relax. It has a coffee place, toilets, safe space for kids to play, a sports field, and an outdoor gym. You can also play tennis and ping-pong there, or just take a nice walk.

A great park to explore with plenty different areas. There's a pond, playing fields, the rose garden, a gym and sports facilities, a cafe and a band stand. The park is open on all days and is great for all ages to explore what it has got to offer. Canada Water and Surrey Quays Station are only a short walk from there and there are plenty of buses going past ir.

What's cool about the spot -
Cycling paths, Tennis and Table tennis for free, lots of green space, benches, a circular pond.
Easy spot where you can spend some time and relax. Whilst it's a decent amount of space the main road is really close by which could make some areas of the park quite noisy. Overall definitely a good place to picnic.
