Wimbledon Park

Wimbledon Park is an absolute gem, especially on a sunny London morning! I took a long walk here and felt so refreshed and genuinely happy. The park was full of life—families, kids, and dogs enjoying themselves, people working out, skating, and cycling, all making the most of the gorgeous weather. The lake made it even more magical, with ducks and swans gliding across the water and boats gently floating by. It’s the perfect place to soak in the sun, breathe in fresh air, and just enjoy the simple joys of life! This defo is my go-to place. 💜

Wimbledon Park is the only green space Merton actually maintains — presumably because it’s in Wimbledon and not one of the peasant zones like Mitcham, where a broken swing counts as urban charm. It’s dog-friendly, lush, and full of rich people’s abandoned tennis balls — basically a five-star buffet for your pooch. There’s a lake, posh joggers, and squirrels with attitude. Come for the greenery, stay for the fantasy that this level of upkeep applies to the rest of the borough.

Wimbledon Park is an absolute gem in South West London, offering a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of city life. The park is beautifully maintained, with wide open spaces, lovely walking paths, and a picturesque lake where visitors can enjoy a spot of boating during the warmer months. The atmosphere is wonderfully relaxed, making it ideal for families, joggers, and those simply looking for a peaceful stroll. There's also a well-kept playground for children and ample seating dotted around, so you can sit and take in the tranquil surroundings. The café on-site serves a good selection of snacks and hot drinks, which is always a welcome treat after a walk. One of the highlights is the stunning view across to the All England Lawn Tennis Club, especially during the Championships when the area is buzzing with excitement. The park also hosts various events and community activities throughout the year, adding to its lively charm. Overall, Wimbledon Park is a delightful place to visit, whether you're looking for relaxation, a bit of exercise, or just some fresh air in a lovely setting. Highly recommended for locals and visitors alike.

My first time at this park, and I really enjoyed my walk. It’s quite big with a massive lake, ducks, swans, mini golf, volleyball courts, tennis courts, huge play area for children. What I love about this park: The lake and birds - so beautiful and peaceful Pergolas - covered in flowers/vines Beautiful spot full of flowers and trees Lots of pretty flower beds Two car parks, depending on what entrance you come from It has public toilets Cute lil pop up coffee shop - nice coffee and muffin was yummy

The lawn is super big, I was like “wow” when I stepped into the park from the north. The pond inside is beautiful also. Nonetheless, only half of the park is open to public, it’s not possible to walk for a round inside the park. To go from the east to the west side of the park (in order to go to the Wimbledon Stadium), we must exit the park then walked for a super long way…. It’s quite disappointing, seldom come across a park is designed in such way… not really worth to come a long way to visit this park… unless for tennis lover. There are many tennis courts, full of ppl playing tennis.

One of the most varied, popular yet relaxed leisure outdoor spaces in London. Tennis courts, volleyball courts, athletics track, recreational lake, cafe, football pitches, rose gardens, footpaths, large grassed areas, wooded areas, swings, slides. Dogs welcome. Locked at night. McCluskeys off-licence and shop just beyond the gate to Revelstoke Road too.

Quite poorly designed and overly groomed park compared to other London parks of that size. The lake is great, but not completely accessible from all sides. There are tons of sporting activities possible in that park, but that means that you are able to stroll around with ease. You always bump into some kind of barrier.

Wonderful little retirement after the working week! It’s a pity many private areas around here lake…
