I think I have worked out that I could use bus route 187 to go from

near
Finchley Road station to near Queens Park station.


The tfl website is showing the quickest transfer is Metropolitan Line to
Baker Street, then back up with the Bakerloo.


LOL. Personally I would either ride the North London Line from Finchley

Road
& Frognal to Brondesbury Park and walk to Queens Park, or walk down to
South Hampstead station and the ride the other Silverlink line to Queens

Park.
Depending on the location of the hills, it might be best to go one way and
come back the other. Going via Baker Street is slow and expensive.


More expensive maybe, as it includes Zone 1, but not necessarily slow if you
allow for the 15-20 minute frequencies on the Silverlink services. It
depends whether you can schedule your journey to fit the timetable or want
the quickest route irrespective of starting time.
