CCamley Street Natural Park (c) Anna Guzzo



Two unique acres of wild green space right in the heart of London, this innovative and internationally acclaimed reserve on the banks of the Regent's Canal is a place for both people and wildlife.
The reserve
Camley Street Natural Park was created from an old coal yard back in 1984. It sits in the middle of King’s Cross, alongside the sparkling new Eurostar station at St Pancras. It is popular with all kinds of people seeking respite from the buzz of the city around them, as well as being a hub for London Wildlife Trust volunteers. Camley Street has a full time education programme for Camden schools, but these and other groups must book (Camden schools have priority over booking). Individuals are welcome to drop in during opening hours or call for details of holiday play activities. The reserve has a visitor centre and provides natural habitat for birds, butterflies, amphibians and a rich variety of plant life.
