Carshalton High Street has 2 parks closed by to choose from and just a few minutes walk away.
I
want to hear the placid flow of the river while watching the birds
float and enjoy the inquisitive behaviour of squirrels who are keen to
follow people, who have food for them. This mixed atmosphere is shown at The Grove Park. The other... LOL!!!
One of the ways to achieve a fit and sexy body is to exercise in the morning and a balanced diet . Am I right, ladies?

Park is the ideal green open space to take a morning exercise like jogging or
running. It has a wide hole in front
of the main gate that was excavated some years ago and it is now just
left, a relic from the past. I am curios about the hole that resembles a
crater and why there it has never been beautified. Aside from the hole
that isn't use for good at all, there's also a canal filled with
stagnant, dirty water. It is located on the left part of the park and probably, it was a useful water way for the village before.

Carshalton
Park is a good place to jog or to play command games with your dog. It
has a number of old majestic chestnut trees planted way back when it was
a Royal Park. Generally, the surroundings make an inviting place for
contemplation and relaxation as its rarely crowded. The quiet is only
occasionally interrupted by cries of, ' chase the ball, Fido '.

It has a tennis court for people who want to follow the popularity of Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Andy Murray in the sport's world. As it is a family friendly park, a toddler's playground is built to make it more appealing for parents and kids to visit the place. A few improvements were constructed to make sure of kids safety while playing around with their families, this includes rubberised mattings around the swing area.
A few months ago, an urban outdoor gym was installed by Sutton Council using the council’s Carshalton & Clockhouse Committee’s public realm budget at this park. The free and easy-to-use gym equipment was provided by The Great Outdoor Gym Company which includes the following:
Benches or oblique machine for protecting your back and improving your posture;
Cross-trainer, treadmill or bike for your joints, muscles and heart/blood vessels;

Lat pull-down machines or pull-up bars for strengthening your lats and will also give you a good bicep workout and
Leg press machine which is excellent for toning the lower body muscles
In general, Carshalton park offers peace and a fresh 'green' air to breath!
