Putney is located in the leafy Borough of Wandsworth and is home to over 29764 residents, 23 bars, 3 tube stations and many pup friendly pubs and restaurants. If you asked your dog what they would like to do with their afternoon they’d almost definitely mention walkies, so we thought we’d better include a few pawsome parks and walks to check out.
If you are a frequent dog walker in South West London you will know there are plenty of green open spaces perfect for afternoon walks with your four legged friend.
Barnes & Putney Common
Barnes & Putney Common is a good place to start for a short walk - this normally takes around 50 minutes and offers scenic views, a wooded area as well as a brook, if your pooch likes to swim.
The Thames Path
The Thames Path from Putney Bridge to Barnes is also a lovely riverside walk that makes for a peaceful amble particularly on a sunny day. If you feel like a slightly longer walk you can follow the path all the way to Kew - the Thames path is well signposted and easy to follow so there is little chance of getting lost.
Putney Heath
If you’re new to the area and have wondered “where can I walk my dog in Putney” you should head to Putney Heath which is roughly a 2 hour walk. The Heath is popular for picnics in warmer months with plenty of open space for your pooch to burn off any extra energy.
