Taking in the beautful Royal Parks of Kensington Gardens, Hyde Park, Green Park and St James's Park, the Diana Memorial Walk is a seven mile route that celebrates the life of the Princess and the charity work that she did for many people all over the world.
With fountains, a memorial statue and the official playgrounds of the Princess all on route, the Diana Memorial Walk gives walkers the chance to take in the sights of the park and the gorgeous landscapes that surround them. With 89 plaques on the route to chart the walk, the start of the walk is located fittingly near the Princesses former home at Kensington Palace.
The official Princess Diana Memorial Fountain is located at Hyde Park and was opened by the Queen in 2004. Crafted from Cornish granite, the fountain has three bridges that cross the water which flows in a cascade from the highest point down to a calm pool at the bottom.
The Diana Memorial Walk takes on the Diana Memorial Playground at Kensington Palace which is open from 10am to 7:45pm from May to August, 10am to 6:45pm April to September, 10am to 5:45 March and October, from 10 to 4:45pm in February and from 10am to 3:45 from November to January. The playground is open to children up to the age of 12 only.
