ハアックストンのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

Large beer garden at the back but only accessible with your bike from the public path over the meadows.

Paths for cycling and walking around large area of grassland and woods.

Quite a nice ride, although it can get busy and the paths are not very wide!

Great bit of light gavel, perfect for some sprints or a light jog to soak in the sights. just watch out for loose dogs and people who are glued to their phones.

A completely different kind of travelling station, although it probably had a different intention when it was established in the late 19th century. https://www.theorchardteagarden.co.uk

"Skaters' Meadow is a wet field and has a highly diverse flora. In spring, a blaze of yellow can be seen as large blossoms of marsh-marigold appear along with the purple of marsh-orchids." (https://www.wildlifebcn.org) Best time to visit, i. e. see see flowering, is spring/summer. Otherwise, hikers will have to be content with a willow and an old lamppost - and a sign describing the former use of the meadow. 😊

Skaters Meadow is where the Victorian toffs came to skate. It still has the original gas lamp which is quite interestimg. Apart from that it is a muddy if not waterlogged field... 4/10

It has become a very popular tourist attraction/crowded, and not great for cycling/best for leisure walks, perhaps🚶‍♂️. Quite different from time of Pink Floyd's - 'Grantchester Meadows' (60's/70's). https://youtu.be/vfZPNQPNw-U?si=wIMSRg8Ckhm1Wwbe
