A public part with pathway leadind to a hill. You can get a magnificent view of London from the top of the hill.
The hill is a short walk from Camden town

Primrose Hill is a neighbourhood of London bordered by Camden and St John's Wood. It is made famous by its hill which is quite big. If you are by the ZSL then you should be able to see the hill.

There are paths to get to the top or you can use the grass. If you are someone who struggles walking you may find it a challenge but the view from the top of the hill is MAGNIFICENT!

You can see the whole of the city from Canary Wharf to the City of London, The London Eye and West. There are plenty of landmarks to see and there is a guide at the top of the hill to help you identify them.

You will definitely enjoy the scenery.

I decided to go down the other way and headed into St John's Wood. It's not quite such a climb going this way.

We started out in Regents Park and found our way to this hill. It was an easy walk on a fine but not too hot summer’s day. The views across London were great. The park is well maintained and a delight to visit.

This is a lovely hill, overlooking the city.
The climb to the hilltop isn't too difficult (mind you - the road is uneven).
There are endless lawns on the hill, which people were using for sunbathing when we visited on a hot June day.

Primrose Hill is easy to get to, with a paved pathway to the top. The path's steep incline compared to walking around London makes it a bit of an effort, but it isn't difficult. The view of the city scape makes it worth going, although it can be quite busy with others visiting.

The height of the hill is impressive once on top, with most of London's buildings being below in the distance.

What a surprise it was coming up this hill, coffee in hand, to be greeted by the most astonishing view. Definitely the best view of a Central Business District I've ever ever seen. Oddly peaceful too.

NEW YEAR'S EVE AT PRIMROSE HILL is totally not recommed in my opinion. In reality you don´t see much of the new year's eve firework display from here. I was totally dissapointed. Went here because I didnt get tickets to see them and thought that by the reviews I had read about Primrose Hill it would be a good alternative, NOT so.
If I'm to see them again or I'll try to but tickets or I'll go to another place.

I love the charm of this park, which is full of locals, dogs and joggers and features in history and art through the decades. It features excellent views of London and local to some nice shops and cafes.

As I couldn't get a ticket for London's fireworks, for New Year's Day, I remembered someone telling me years ago that this was also good to see them. Unfortunately, Chalk Farm was closed and I was told to get off at Camden Town underground station. It was cold, as I joined the others who also had decided to go there. When I got there, there were police and stewards keeping an eye on everyone and any car or bus. The hill was very steep and the grass was very muddy, which I had to step on as people just stood where they liked. There was one bench, which was full. I managed to stand near to the top of the hill with ten minutes to go. We counted down the last minute before the fireworks started. I had a very good view and, when it was over, someone behind us, let off some more fireworks. This continued as we made our way down the hill and the stewards made sure we left safely on our way to where we we needed to go. If you can't get a ticket for a future London fireworks display for the New Year, I would recommend this one as it's free.
