Walking Ridge and River

⚑Departure from Little Baddow (Essex)

A circular walk that circumnavigates the village of Little Baddow. Beginning in Lingwood Common, the route follows bridleways, footpaths, the river towpath and quiet country lanes. A good walk for any time of year, but not after spells of prolonged rain when the towpath, especially, can become something of a quagmire. Walking it in spring is highly recommended as Blake's Wood is nationally known for its display of bluebells.

Walking Woodham Walter Circular

Walker
↔8.50 km ↗+51 m ↘-48 m ◔2h 35 ▲Easy
⚑Departure from Woodham Walter (Essex)

This walk, close to the ancient village of Woodham Walter, offers a nature reserve, arable fields, woodland and The Wilderness. The route is along bridleways and footpaths for the most part, with a couple of short sections on country lanes. There are only two cross-field paths so it's a good winter walk but, like any Essex hike, it can be muddy after rain.

Walking Little Leighs Circular

Walker
Little Leighs Circular
↔11.67 km ↗+18 m ↘-18 m ◔3h 25 ▲Moderate
⚑Departure from Great and Little Leighs (Essex)

A circular walk in a comparatively unspoiled part of mid Essex, between Chelmsford and Braintree. It is particularly suited to being a winter walk as most of the route is on quiet country lanes, surfaced bridleways and grassy field paths, thus avoiding the worst of the Essex mud. It is a good walk for any time of year though, with fine views across open countryside and is, for the most part, devoid of traffic noise.

Walking Terling Circular

Walker
↔9.15 km ↗+20 m ↘-30 m ◔2h 40 ▲Easy
⚑Departure from Terling (Essex)

A countryside walk beginning and ending in the village of Terling. Nothing spectacular about the route but it has some nice views and pleasant countryside, passes an old windmill and a rare round tower church. The route follows the course of the River Ter in places, and there are quite a few springs along the way, so it can get muddy. There are a couple of woods with excellent displays of bluebells in the spring but it is a good walk for any time of year. Waymarking is generally excellent.

Details are given for a shorter walk of 4 miles that does not visit Great Leighs church.
