I love a good park and Richmond park is definitely one of the good ones! If you’re not spotting deer you can walk through it’s mini forests and gardens or just chill by the pond.

Path and hoar frost in Richmond Park At noon after a cold clear night the sun was out but had not melted the hoar frost on the grass. There are many paths across the park in this area.
