Training in Archway

A wave pool, a boxing gym and a big hill.

Archway Leisure Centre on Macdonald Road has a leisure pool with a wave machine, flume and fitness lanes, a two-storey gym looking over it, a studio, and a sauna and steam room. Islington Boxing Club on Hazellville Road, founded as Kings Cross Amateur Boxing Club in 1974 and run mostly by volunteers, trains juniors, competitive amateurs and keep-fit boxers. PureGym on Holloway Road and Energie Fitness are the open-access gyms, with reformer Pilates at Energie and AC Pilates, personal training at Dowe Dynamics, and Experience Archery for something different.

Archway Park, Dartmouth Park and Hillside Park are the local green spaces, and Highgate Hill rises straight out of Archway for anyone who wants hill repeats with company. Archway station is on the Northern line's Highgate branch, and Upper Holloway is the nearest Overground stop.
