Richmond Park out in the west of London is the jewel in the crown of the 8 Royal Parks. Spring is a great time to visit – especially the Isabella Plantation with its delightful evergreen azaleas. Another must-see is the fantastic views from King Henry’s Mound in the gardens of Pembroke Lodge – to the east is the Thames Valley and to the west is London, with even St Paul’s Cathedral visible on a clear day. An annual highlight is the deer rutting season that runs between October and November. Walking through the park at this time, it is common to hear a deep roar in the air and the locking of horns as the stags fight for domination. It feels less like a London park and more like the Maasai Mara.
