If you are looking for a perfect walk this weekend, there is no need to go any further than the Tamsin Trail, which has been named one of the best in the country.

The 7.35 mile trail around the perimeter of Richmond Park has been picked out for its beautiful views and wildlife, particularly the deer. The accolade as one of Britain's best 51 walks comes from a survey by Which? of its readers. And the consumer champion said the trail scores highly because it is accessible and mostly flat. It said: "The 630 red and fallow deer that freely roam around Richmond Park are the big pull on this walk and there's a good chance that you'll see them. "This, the largest Royal Park, has plenty of room to accommodate both deer, and those walking and cycling the perimeter on the Tamsin Trail. "Paved and clearly signposted, the trail is easy to follow and is level apart from a couple of short climbs. "Enjoy King Henry's Mound near Pembroke Lodge, a magnificent Georgian mansion, and appreciate the views of St Paul's Cathedral in central London on one side and the Thames Valley on the other." The Royal Parks said: "You can join the path from any of the car parks or gates around the edge of the park. The track passes many of the deer's favourite places so good photographic opportunities are likely." "If you walk at a steady pace and don't stop much then it would take approximately 2- .5 hours to walk all the way around the track. "However, it's more likely to take 3-4 hours to walk it with frequent stops for photos of deer and ice-creams!" The Tamsin Trail was placed at 49 in the list of walks. Relatively few on the list are within easy reach of residents in the capital. Also on the list are Regent's Canal and a few in Surrey - the Leith Hill Woodland Trail and the Hindhead Common and Devil's Punchbowl. Further afield is the South Downs Way. The Lake District proved the most popular region for high quality walks, claiming six spots in the table. The Peak District, Cornwall and Northumberland each boast three of the best walks, while Dorset, Snowdonia, London, Surrey and the North York Moors have two each Number one spot went to a walk in Yorkshire, which takes in Malham Cove and Gordale Scar. Visitors were impressed by the cove's amphitheatre-shaped cliffs which lead up to a limestone pavement. The joint second best walks were both in Cornwall - the tiny Botallack Mine Walk and the more challenging seven-mile Lizard Peninsula Circuit. The editor of Which? Travel, Rory Boland, said: "The UK has an amazing variety of walks and with its magical connection, the most popular route in our survey was a worthy winner. "From breath-taking rolling hills and lake loops to historic hikes, clifftop paths and the shingle beaches below, there is a route for every taste or occasion."
