We are the Hike Essex Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
Late spring stroll around Highwoods Country Park. Unwind from the daily stresses of the office/family etc with a short, circular walk around this beautiful park. The lungs of Colchester. Providing stunning views of the city centre within a calm woodland setting. Maybe discover bits of it you have not been to before.
This is a WalkMyWay walk. Short, introductory walks encouraging people to relax and join in in their own area. After a day's work, group walking is a great way to de-stress and meet new people.
My walks will be in the Colchester area, usually Wednesday evenings around 7. So keep an eye out. We are hoping to create different walking hubs around the county as momentum builds.
WalkMyWay walks are also a good introduction to walk leading. If you have a walk you know and love that you would like to lead, anywhere in Essex, contact walks@hikeessex.org.uk. We can support you all the way.
Meet at the main Highwoods Country Park car park off Turner road. We'll gather in front of the visitor's centre. The car park is open until 10pm. Cost: £1.20 for 2 hours
