EPPING FOREST NORTH WALK
London
by Adventure Solos
OVERVIEW
Day Hikes by Adventure Solos are a great way to get to know us if you're interested in our solo-friendly adventures. We set a fairly slow and steady pace for these walks, making them social and inclusive events. All walks are lead by an Adventure Solos host that is also a qualified Mountain Leader and first aider (usually Chris from Adventure Solos).

DESCRIPTION
Epping Forest, London's largest open space, is a former Royal Forest. It covers over 6,000 acres of land, with 50,000 ancient tress and over 100 lakes and ponds.
​
The Central Line to Epping Underground Station makes for easy access from London. From there, this 9 mile (14km) walk takes us through the heart of the forest, dominated by beach and oak trees, to High Beach viewpoint.
​
On the edge of the forest we visit a beautiful pub ordained with hanging baskets and handy beer garden for a refreshing drink and chat, before ending the walk at Loughton Tube Station (also on the Central Line).
​​​
The walk is relatively flat; there are no major hills to ascend or descend. The walk will take around 4.5 hours plus approximately 1 hour visit to the beer garden (soft drinks are available).
​​
We walk at a steady pace for this hike; a low/moderate level of fitness will suffice.
