Welcome to Capital Walkers, the friendly London Ramblers group for people aged 40+. We walk every weekend and usually at least once during the week.

Join me to explore Epping Forest as Part 1 of The Essex Way which will lead us through Essex. Whilst not strictly regarded as part of The Essex Way by all, it is where this journey begins.
The Essex Way is 81 miles of glorious Essex from Epping to Harwich and a superb trail in which to develop a love for this often underrated county. I can almost certainly promise mud at times, incredible scenery and fascinating history along the way.
Our journey begins at Manor Park Station (Elizabeth Line) where we shall meet outside the station at 10am. After crossing Wanstead Flats we pass Hollow Pond before continuing towards Queen Elizabeth's Hunting Lodge. Following the established paths in Epping Forest we pass the Ambresbury Banks Iron Age hill fort before reaching Epping.
Travel Details:
Take the Elizabeth Line to Manor Park Station arriving by 10am.
Epping Station is on the Central Underground Line with regular trains back towards central London.
No booking required.
The finishing time is an estimate only and will be dependent on a number of factors such as, weather, the speed at which the group walks and the number of breaks taken.
