Description
This route is the same as Kinbre one, but adds additional navigation aids in Fryent Country park so that you don't get stuck, and changes the routes around the West Hondon Playing Fields so that you don't get stuck behind impassable hedges and allotment fences

Surveys
We are working to build-up a picture of what routes look like. To do that we are asking volunteers to survey routes so that we can communicate features, obstacles and challenges that may make a route desirable or not.
Slow Ways surveyors are asked to complete some basic online training, but they are not vetted. If you are dependent on the survey information being correct in order to complete a route, we recommend that you think critically about the information provided. You may also wish to wait until more than one survey has been completed.

30 Mar 2024I did this as part of a circular route from Kingsbury via Brent Cross, Kilburn and Wembley, returning to Kingsbury. Public transport, cafes and shops are easily available. I downloaded the Slow Way GPX files to my OS app which worked very well.
A very enjoyable walk which is well documented. Freyent Park was very wet and muddy in late March and it will take time to dry. There are some stunning views across London and beyond from the Park. The route goes through a further two parks. Welsh Harp reservoir was almost dry. There is an underpass and then a footbridge with ramps over the North Circular.

26 Mar 2022A really pleasant stroll, across some lovely green open spaces, the best being Freyent Park, and around Welsh Harp Reservoir. Definitely not appropriate for road bikes, wheelchairs or pushchairs (lots of grass, and would be very muddy in winter/early spring or after rain. The route as laid out here works well!.

10 Feb 2022This is Kinbre One, but with the navigation in Fryent Country Park and near Welsh Harp fixed, as there were several places that were impassible.
I walked this from Kingsbury to Brent Cross. The first part goes up the hill in Fryent Country park, and although steep, the views at the top are worth it. It also gets a little bit soggy in places. After a quick stretch through some residential streets you end up on some playing fields. Navigation these was a bit tricky, and some paths were hard to spot. At the end is the Welsh Harp reservoir though, which is well worth a rest break. From there on, it goes through less interesting residential streets and across the North Circular to Brent Cross.
