There are toilets scattered around the park but you do have to pay, not 100% sure how much, but it is either 20p or 50p make sure you have change on you if you want to use the toilet!!!

 

Google maps says both maps together are 4.4 miles and takes 1hr 30mins. It will 100% take longer

 

A Walk Around Mayfair and Marble Arch


Google says it is 1.5miles and will take 32mins, If you stop for food/drinks it will take you longer!!

 


Walk 1


Start stop 1

Banksy

Shop till you drop, look up!!

 


Stop 2

Up some stairs with monkeys on the corners is a stunning garden with benches and a coffee shop.
