Highbury Fields parkrun

The course

The course is 5k long. The course is around Highbury Fields, Islington, London, N5. The course is mostly on tarmac paths and the final section into the finish is on grass. Some sections of the course may accumulate mud, leaves and puddles after rain. Dependent on availability, marshals will be at key sections of the course, or signs will be in place.

Please remember that the parkrun uses shared paths. For the continued success of the event, please give way to other park users. This won't hurt your time, it won't stop you from getting a PB and it will make sure everyone continues to enjoy the event.

Please, wherever possible walk, jog, cycle or use public transport when attending the event. If you do have to drive, please consider car-sharing to reduce our impact on both the environment and other park users. Please also watch out for other park users when arriving and leaving. Parking may be limited so try to arrive early.

What people say

“Visiting London from Australia and love going to Parkrun in new places! We took a tube from central London for about 30 minutes then walk 15 minutes to get to Highbury Field Parkrun. Fantastic course as the path run…”Penny Gaffney · 5 stars

“It's a great route. Small hill but nothing crazy, 5 laps of the same route... Gets a bit crowded on some of the corners but overall one of the best parkruns in London :D”Liam P · 5 stars
