Greenwich Park Run, London (3.3 km)

Greenwich Park sits on a long hill dropping towards the Thames, with some of the best free views in London from the top. This 3.3 km loop climbs to the observatory and comes back through the lower lawns. Short, but the hill makes it feel like a proper run.

- Distance: About 3.3 km (2.0 miles)
- Terrain: Paved paths and gravel tracks — a steady climb to the observatory, then a faster descent through the lower park
