Although I don't live far from the park, I realised I had never properly explored it. With not much else planned for bank holiday, we went for a stroll throughout the park.
We went through the Kensington gate towards the pagoda and the children's zoo. We then walked through the vast areas of beautiful greenery and happened upon the boating lake. Just around the corner was a neat outdoor pub / seating area, where we shared a jug of pimms for £20. It was both relaxing and fun, basking in the sun and sipping on our pimms.
As we walked further around the park, I was pleasantly surprised by its range of amenities. They have tennis courts and areas for work out, a performance arena, and go ape to name a few. I would love to try more of these next time. But to even just sit on the grass looked great fun -- not as crowded like Green Park, with ample space for both family and friends gatherings alike.
Absolute treat if you're in the area!

Yet another one of London's great parks, this one is surrounded by beautiful neighborhoods one all sides, the River Thames, and luscious bridges from one side of the bank to the other. It does get super cold during the Fall and Winter months, so dress warmly if you're visiting during that time.
Perhaps one of the most popular events you'll hear about taking place at this park is something called Bonfire Night or Guy Fawkes Night. After having had it explained to me several times, I still have no idea why they celebrate a failed attempt at a bombing over a hundred years ago, and I get the feeling not too many Londoners do, either. However, it doesn't stop them from throwing a huge bonfire party compete with food stands with queues a mile long and an enormous bonfire in the middle of the park. It does fill up, so you must book your tickets in advance.
Other than that, it's just a really big park that you can visit and hang out in/ jog through of you happen to be in the area.

Battersea Park is one of my favorite parks - just off center from central London, it offers an ample and quieter green space to escape for the morning or afternoon before delving back into the cacophony that is Central London!
Highlights include the Pump House Gallery for all you art lovers (me!) which is a small but charming space, regularly updated and also takes responsibility for the external installations that pop up around the park - and the central fountains and tea terrace, which is accompanied by a lovely veranda and mini maze - cute for a warm sunny day to waste an hour or two!
For families and dog owners, the park itself is big enough to get lost on an adventure and tire out your little ones or four legged friend - they also have a small childrens' zoo and you can hire tricycles to get around - zig zagging around the park offers hours of entertainment!
For couples after a romantic spot, an evening stroll to watch the sunset is always a winner - the park itself sits quite nicely alongside the Thames bank and Albert Bridge at the far West end is worth seeking out as one of Londons' lesser discussed but none-the-less gorgeous examples of architectural engineering. Grab further romantic feels with a little visit to the Buddhist temple, which is just beautiful to look at in itself!
Gardens, greenery and activities a plenty, Battersea Park is a popular spot with the locals but if you're visiting London and fancy trialing somewhere a little less touristy for a picnic - Head over this way :)

Royal Park, full of the usual stuff you might find in a Royal park, plus the Buddha.
Occasionally they host events like charity runs, or recently Formula-E.
Great for local people, not-so-great if you live on the other side of London and everyone has decided to meet in Battersea Park at 9am on a Sunday! :)
The café in the middle is fairly decent, and it has some other activities and a car park if you're driving there.

Wonderful, medium sizes park in London, just south of the river. They have a large adventure playground for children of varying ages, as well as a "Go Ape", which is a treetop parcour for older children and adults and looks immensely fun!
Right next to the playground is a small crazy golf course and a restaurant.
There's a small zoo, a Buddhist pagoda, beautifully kept gardens and a Thames path along the top edge of the park.
Definitely worth a visit!

Beautiful park!
I first visited Battersea Park for the first time on a gorgeous spring day and the sun was shining. I entered through the Chelsea gate and found my first ice cream stall within only a couple of minutes (result!)
You can take a walk (or run) along the river bank or take up some tennis in the courts they have there! There's so much to do and lots of activities and things to hire.
They have some beautiful sculptures and water features throughout the park.
I walked around for about 40 minutes just enjoying the sunshine and the green grass and there was definitely so much more to the park that I just didn't see!
Such a beautiful area of London!

It's the kind of park you only get to know more and more as you visit it more frequently!
I like to enter through the Chelsea gate, and often end up staying longer than I envisaged as I like to wander.
I simply love it, particularly for its convenient location.

What a lovely park!
While visiting your fair city, I ran a 10K in Battersea Park and got to see a lot of it as the race was four loops around most of the park. Very clean and well-maintained, the park was enjoyed by runners, dog walkers, children and parents and other just out for a relaxing stroll or a seat on a bench.
They have nice facilities in the middle of the park, places for kids to play, lovely gardens and plantings and lots of open spaces to use for whatever (as long as it's legal, I'm assuming).
Was very happy I got to see this park and would recommend it for a nice stroll. It's easy to get to from anywhere in the city.

Battersea Park is one of my favourite places to hang out on a hot summer's day in London. Even though I'm not local anymore, I still go back to this gorgeous park.
There's plenty of space in the park to hang with friends, bring a BBQ and watch the world go by. There are toilet facilities too, which is handy after more than a few cans of Pimms in the park!
There's usually lots of kids in the summer since the Battersea Children's Zoo is situated in the park along with other facilities for kids...
My favourite thing about Battersea Park, though, is taking a pedal boat around the Battersea Park Lake. It's so romantic and peaceful. Even if romance isn't in the air, it's equally fun with a friend.
In winter, there are many events which run from time to time at the park. One of the stand out winter events is the fireworks on November 5th. Battersea Park puts on a great show...
This is such a beautiful park in a gorgeous area of London, if you've not been there, don't wait till summer - go visit now!

Beautiful spaces, gardens dating back to the mid 1800s and spaces even older. A lovely old London gem with elements from across the years. Shiny, new stuff paired with classic old stuff. Ponds, paths, boats, birds, bikes, and ice cream! Plus a children's zoo!
One of the best parts of Thames-side Battersea. The giant old trees are marvelous and it's easy to forget where you are when you're in the middle of the park.
