About Hyde Park

London's Hyde Park is one of the greatest city parks in the world. Covering 142 hectares (350 acres) and with over 4,00 trees, a large lake, a meadow and ornamental flower gardens, there’s a good chance you’ll forget you are right in the centre of London.

Hyde Park in London has something for everyone. You can enjoy swimming, boating, cycling and skating. There are pitches for team games, tennis courts, tracks for horse riding and a spectacular children’s playground.

The Park has two lakeside restaurants which are licensed and serve everything from a three-course meal to a quick cup of coffee. Hyde Park is home to a number of fascinating buildings and monuments, such as The Serpentine Bridge, the Joy of Life fountain and the famous Archiles statue. And with the Diana Memorial Fountain and open air events throughout the year, there’s always something to see and do. If you’re out and about on Sunday, head to Speaker’s Corner to hear London’s most vocal orators share their opinions with the world.

Ice skating will also be available from November to January (specific dates yet to be confirmed)

Open: Daily from 05.00 - midnight all year round.

Reviews of Hyde Park

Visit London review of Hyde Park

Reviewed by: Visit London
What could be more romantic than a leisurely row on the Serpentine in Hyde Park? During the summer rowing boats and pedalos cost just £5 per hour to hire and you can even go fishing if you have a license. After you have finished on the water, take a walk around the stunning park which also deserves a look.
