Arnos Vale Cemetery

Tucked away from the bustle of city life, Arnos Vale Cemetery feels like a hidden world steeped in history. This beautiful and atmospheric space is filled with winding paths that weave around historic gravestones, striking memorials and fascinating structures, many of which have become part of the natural landscape over time.

Wildlife thrives here, with flora and fauna filling every nook and cranny. Thanks to the ongoing efforts of dedicated local volunteers, many of the main paths have been cleared and restored, although some areas remain deliberately overgrown, adding to the sense of discovery and quiet charm.

This is a lovely place for a gentle wander and pairs perfectly with a more energetic run at neighbouring Arnos Court Park, giving dogs the chance to stretch their legs before slowing the pace in more peaceful surroundings.

A secret world is hidden away from the hustle and bustle of city life.
