Escape the bustle of central London and join us for a peaceful walk through the green oasis of The Regent’s Park. Discover some of the amazing plants and animals that live and forage in the park along the way.

On this introductory nature walk we’ll learn how to identify some common plant and animal species and the important value they provide to the park’s biodiversity.

Which bumblebee has a fluffy white bottom?
