Our September Chill Hike for queer folks of colour and queer migrants will be a lovely walk through Richmond Park!
This will be an eight mile circular walk through some gentle parkland, with a mix of landscaped plantations and wildlife havens, all of which takes place on relatively flat ground with few ascents or descents. The trail also takes us through one of the largest deer habitats in South East England, and if we're lucky, we'll get to see some of the hundreds of red and fallow deer that call Richmond Park their home, so if you have a zoom lens on your camera, bring it along!
We've rated the difficulty of this hike at only One Boot, so if you're looking for a leisurely walk and the chance to meet some new friends, come and join us!

About Queer Routes:
We’re a group of queer migrants and queer folks of colour who’ve gotten together to bring you Queer Routes, a brand new group offering small-group hikes for QTIPoC and queer migrants based in or around London.
Our hikes are all about building community, meeting new people, learning from each other, and connecting with the land around us. With smaller groups, we’re aiming to give you the chance to have deeper conversations, and to create lasting and more meaningful connections.
