Friends of the River Crane Environment

Enjoying the outdoors: a series of family-friendly short walks along the River Crane

We have created a new set of walks along the Crane focusing on our carved benches. These walks are intended for families with 5-10 year old children to enjoy together.

Each walk can be completed separately or can be joined up to make longer walks. Most walks are suitable for wheelchair users and buggies.

The first walk goes from Twickenham (The Crane Tap) to Kneller Gardens 

This walk takes in the following benches:- Plane Tree, Train, Sparrow, Woodpecker, Woodpeckers, Fox and Fox and then into Kneller Gardens which also has several carvings around the park. Please click for the Bench Walk 1 and challenges.

The second goes from Kneller Gardens to Willow Way 

This walk takes in the following benches:-  Heron, Stag beetle, Shire Horses, Robin, Kingfisher and Willow ending in Willow Way Open Space  Please click for the Bench Walk 2 and challenges.
