Had a fabulous day out there yesterday. Boy, they have thrown some money at the place! The play parks are amazing... Big tree houses with high rope bridges , water channels that can be dammed, huge sand pits, woodland trails, climbing walls etc. We took 4 children between 9 and 13 and all were busy exploring and playing for hours.
You can go into the velodrome for free and watch the cyclists. There is a great viewing area for the BMX track too. You can hire a child's bike and helmet for £6 to go on the mountain bike trail or cycle paths. The swimming pool viewing area is free. So we watched some swimming and diving. You can swim in the pool for about £3.50 but it was all booked up when we checked online. The orbit had no queues but for £40 per family the free view from John Lewis won the day.
The Olympic and Paralympic signs are still up and have great views and photo opportunities. Do add it to your must-do in London lists.
