We take a look at some of the best parks for dog walking in London and where they are on the map. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dog parks are rife in London, since it truly is a city of dog lovers, and the city is actually forty seven percent \u2018green spaces\u2019, so there\u2019s plenty of choice for where to take your canine companion out on a walk.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our parks for dog walking in this list are all dog-friendly, so everyone there should be welcoming and your dog should find plenty of friends to play with!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/osmaps.com\/discover\/site\/uploads\/images\/Dogparks_full2.png\" alt=\"Dog playing with ball\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-greenwich-park\">Greenwich Park<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If your pup enjoys a good bit of history &#8211; or you do, and your four-legged friend is just along for the ride &#8211; then Greenwich Park is an amazing place to go. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although some of the park is off-limits to dogs &#8211; the Wilderness Deer Park, for example, advises you not to bring dogs to the fence for obvious reasons, and The Flower and Rose Gardens and the Royal Observatory Garden are also dog-free zones &#8211; the park is so huge that you will barely notice these limitations, and its history stretches back to the Roman times. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The National Maritime Museum and Old Naval College are more historical elements to this massive park, and you\u2019ll be able to gape at the beautiful London skyline as your dog races around with its new Greenwich Park friends, since it\u2019s a very popular place to take your dog to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"blog-buttons\">\n    <a class=\"btn second map\" href=\"https:\/\/explore.osmaps.com\/pin?lat=51.478079&amp;lon=-0.001272&amp;zoom=13.7935&amp;overlays=&amp;style=Leisure&amp;type=2d\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Map of Greenwich Park <i class=\"fa fa-arrow-right\"><\/i><\/a>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/osmaps.com\/discover\/site\/uploads\/images\/dogparks_sq3.png\" alt=\"Dogs walking in park\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-st-james-s-park\">St. James\u2019s Park<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>St James\u2019s park is a fifty-eight acre haven for dogs and their owners in the heart of London, with a lake for watching the variety of birds splash about (ducks, geese and pelicans) and access to watch the changing of the guards (weather permitting) at 11.30 AM each morning. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your dog must be kept on its lead in the Royal Gardens (in front of Buckingham Palace), on the path circling the lake and on the marching area of Horse Guards Parade, but everywhere else they are free to be let off the lead and have as much fun as they want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"blog-buttons\">\n    <a class=\"btn second map\" href=\"https:\/\/explore.osmaps.com\/pin?lat=51.501528&amp;lon=-0.134396&amp;zoom=14.6988&amp;overlays=&amp;style=Leisure&amp;type=2d\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Map of St James Park <i class=\"fa fa-arrow-right\"><\/i><\/a>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-hyde-park\">Hyde Park<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHyde Park might be one of the most well-known dog parks in London, and rightly so,\u201d Nathan Head, a writer at <a href=\"https:\/\/draftbeyond.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">DraftBeyond<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/researchpapersuk.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Research Papers UK<\/a>, says. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt is an astounding three hundred and fifty plus acres of land, which is mostly open to the doggy public of London &#8211;
