Overview

This 5-mile section of the Loop soon reaches the lock itself, then follows channels of the River Lea before (slowly!) climbing into the rolling Sewardstone Hills and into Epping Forest. Some parts may be muddy after rain. No toilets at start, but there is a nearby pub, and toilets are  available at the end. Due to lack of facilities, the refreshment break will be quite early, on picnic tables at Sewardstone Marsh - bring snacks. Should finish by 15.30
!!! No booking required, just turn up
