Event Description

Spring Tree Walk in Alexandra Park

Join the Friends of Alexandra Park for our next Tree Walk on Saturday 21st March at 2pm 

Meet at the Bedford Road (Alexandra Palace Station) entrance to the Park, by the Gas Hut (small brick building on the left).
We will finish at the Boating Lake, by the cafe, at around 3.30.


We are planning to have a quick look at some trees near the Gas Hut (such as elms, and wild service) then walk up through the conservation area, cross the road and see the trees in the Blandford Hall area, and by the animal enclosure.

The main aims will be to identify trees in early spring, before most things are in leaf, and to think a little about why particular trees were planted, or grow in particular places.  We will also cross two lines of oaks marking old field boundaries.
