Outdoor activities in London, hah, you need the weather to be nice and sunny. Oh what the heck, just get up, get out and enjoy what’s on offer. Time to get everyone off the screens and get the heart rate a little higher with some outdoors activity!
Here are three places to hit immediately!
King’s Cross Pond Club
Situated in the city of London, King’s Cross Pond Club is part art installation and part relaxation pool, where you can take a dip in the natural waters within the confines of urbanity. Stretching for 40 metres, the pool gives visitors a new perspective on the rapidly changing surroundings. The grass and wild flowers that surround the pool change with the seasons, giving you a different experience each time you visit. Submerged water plants filter the water, keeping it fresh and clean. Proud to be the first ever man-made fresh water pool for public bathing, The Pond is ensconced in mild landscaping and plants. Facilities include changing rooms, showers, rest rooms and lockers, in addition to life guards. The newest attraction is the wood sauna inspired by the Scandinavian tradition of outdoor saunas. Advance booking will ensure you get your space.

Lee Valley White Water Centre
Challenging the adventurer in you, this action-packed venue, earlier reserved for the 2012 Olympics, is now open to public. Canoeing, rafting, kayaking and surfing are all fun activities offered in the Lee Valley White Water Centre. The raft rides along the Olympics competition course will have you nose dunking and slipping along, keeping the adrenalin pumping. Whether you are a beginner or a pro, you will find something of interest here. Hydrospeeding, akin to body boarding, and Hot Dog Sessions on two-seater inflatables are the latest attractions for novices.
Other recent additions include canoe polo and aquathlons. Come for a day of fun and frolic with excellent delicacies prepared by our gourmet chef and served by servile waiters. Friday night live musicals add a romantic note to this fun filled venue that is the White Water enter. The Centre hosts corporate and other events too. You must be above 14 to gain entry into this enthralling retreat.

Go Ape Battersea
Hanging from a 40-foot high tree, you will look down upon the greenery and calm that is Battersea Park. Go Ape has finally come through with its promise of an adventure within the confines of the city. The heights at this GoApe location are higher than all its other sites. You will of course be strapped in with a net below to catch you if you fall, but this does not detract from the thrill of hanging from treetops like our ancestors, the apes. The tree top adventure includes Tarzan swings, zip wires and crossings, all of which challenge you to the extreme. Children must be accompanied by participating adults or they can go for the Tree Top Junior ride built especially for them. You can have all this fun within your own London city without having to travel too far!
Address: Park Offices, Battersea Park, London SW11 4NJ

Adventure that was earlier the realm of mountains and rivers is now here within your reach. These three fun-filled adventure spots will spark all you Londoners and have you hip-hopping from tree tops to deep waters. Booking in advance will ensure you are not disappointed.
