One minute we\u2019re complaining about the rain, the next we\u2019re melting on a run wondering why we ever wished for sunshine.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That\u2019s exactly why I love heading to beautiful Epping Forest when the temperatures climb.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The majestic ancient woodlands provide welcome shade, the forest paths are a world away from busy roads, and there\u2019s something incredibly calming about swapping traffic noise for birdsong. Whether you\u2019re looking for a short walk, training for a longer hiking adventure or simply want an excuse to spend a few hours outdoors, Epping Forest offers some of the best walking routes in East London and Essex.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I\u2019ve recorded three of my favourite routes below on Strava, which makes it really easy to plan longer walks, stay on course and look back at your adventure afterwards.\u00a0Each route offers something a little different, from an accessible 10km wander to a 25km challenge, so there\u2019s something for almost every fitness level.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Managed by the City of London Corporation, the forest stretches from Manor Park in the south all the way to Bell Common near Epping, making it one of the largest areas of ancient woodland in the country. It\u2019s packed with waymarked trails, tranquil ponds, open grassland and fascinating history, so it\u2019s easy to see why it\u2019s one of my favourite places to explore.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019re new to hiking, don\u2019t forget to check out my <a href=\"https:\/\/www.keepitsimpelle.com\/beginners-guide-to-your-first-hike\/\" type=\"post\" id=\"24032\" data-lasso-id=\"11665\">Beginner\u2019s Guide to Your First Hike<\/a>, where I cover everything you need to know before setting off.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">People often ask whether hiking is just another word for walking and to be honest I kind use them interchangeably because they kinda are the same.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A short walk around your local park probably wouldn\u2019t be called a hike, but spend a few hours exploring woodland trails, carrying water and snacks, and covering 10\u201320km, and most people would happily call it hiking. I think personally, I\u2019d expect hiking to be a bit more challenging with elevation and the types of terrain you cover.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The beauty of Epping Forest is that it caters for both. There are plenty of easy walks if you\u2019re just getting started, alongside longer adventures like the Epping Forest Centenary Walk and sections of the London Loop and Essex Way\u00a0if you\u2019re looking for a bigger challenge.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However you describe it, it\u2019s a great way to get moving, clear your head and spend some time in nature.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the biggest advantages of walking in Epping Forest during summer is the shade.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unlike walking through open countryside, many of the trails wind beneath towering ancient trees, helping to keep temperatures a little more comfortable on hot days. You\u2019ll also find plenty of open grassland areas, peaceful clearings and tranquil ponds, including the beautiful Connaught Water, where it\u2019s worth taking a short break before continuing your walk.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The forest is incredibly accessible too. Thanks to public transport, you can start your adventure from Loughton Station, Epping Station or Theydon Bois Underground Station, depending on which route you choose. If you\u2019re driving, there are several car parks throughout the forest, including Pillow Mounds Car Park near High Beech.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just remember that even shaded woodland can become warm during prolonged periods of hot weather. Check the weather conditions, carry more water than you think you\u2019ll need and plan your route before you leave.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Epping Forest Oak Trail<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Distance:<\/strong>\u00a010.2km<br \/><strong>Time:<\/strong>\u00a0Around 2 hours<br \/><strong>Elevation:<\/strong>\u00a0157m<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019re looking for the perfect walk to introduce yourself to hiking, I\u2019d start with the Epping Forest Oak Trail.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This circular route combines woodland tracks, open spaces and a few gentle climbs to give you a brilliant taste of everything Epping Forest has to offer. There is one steep incline that will get your heart rate up, but it\u2019s short-lived and absolutely manageable for most walkers with a reasonable level of fitness.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Along the way you\u2019ll pass towering oak trees, peaceful woodland clearings and plenty of opportunities to stop for photos. Keep your eyes peeled for fallow deer, which are often spotted throughout the forest.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Best for<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>First-time hikers<\/li>\n<li>Easy walks with a bit of challenge<\/li>\n<li>Half-day adventures<\/li>\n<li>Families and friends<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Roding Valley Greenway<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Distance:<\/strong>\u00a016.9km<br \/><strong>Time:<\/strong>\u00a0Around 2 hours<br \/><strong>Elevation:<\/strong>\u00a065m<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you prefer flatter terrain, the\u00a0Roding Valley Greenway\u00a0is a fantastic option.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You\u2019re basically following the River Roding for the majority of the route which makes this walk feel completely different from the woodland-heavy Oak Trail. The scenery constantly changes, making it ideal if you enjoy exploring rather than simply covering miles.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s also brilliant if you\u2019re marathon training or\u00a0long running, as it offers a lower-impact way to build endurance while giving your joints a break from pounding the pavements. I used this route on repeat when I was marathon training and have included a couple of the shortened versions I used while building \/ tapering my distance. The shorter versions all end at Central Line tube stations and pass cafes on the way to the station.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I\u2019d definitely recommend packing a few snacks because you\u2019ll want to take your time and enjoy the surroundings.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Camino Gratitude 25<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Distance:<\/strong>\u00a024.8km<br \/><strong>Time:<\/strong>\u00a0Around 3 hours<br \/><strong>Elevation:<\/strong>\u00a0Almost flat<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019re ready for a proper challenge, this is the route I\u2019d choose. Covering almost 25km, it\u2019s a full-day adventure that rewards you with ever-changing scenery and a huge sense of achievement by the end.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I actually did this route as part of the official Camino Gratitude event (pictured below) and it was the first time I\u2019d ever run over a half marathon distance!\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1331\" height=\"2000\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28403 perfmatters-lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.keepitsimpelle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_1678.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.keepitsimpelle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_1678.jpg 1331w, https:\/\/www.keepitsimpelle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_1678-300x451.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.keepitsimpelle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_1678-1022x1536.jpg 1022w, https:\/\/www.keepitsimpelle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_1678-150x225.jpg 150w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1331px) 100vw, 1331px\"\/><\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This isn\u2019t a route I\u2019d recommend tackling on a whim during a heatwave though. Being an A to B route, you\u2019ll need to catch a train up to the start point (a pub) and run to the end. Start early, fuel properly, stay hydrated and remember that walking for several hours can be just as demanding as many runs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sometimes the best days outdoors aren\u2019t the fastest\u2014they\u2019re simply the ones where you spend hours exploring somewhere new.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What to Pack<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the things I love most about hiking is that you don\u2019t need loads of expensive gear to get started.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My essentials include:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Plenty of water (I always use a hydration \/ running vest)<\/li>\n<li>Snacks<\/li>\n<li>Sunscreen<\/li>\n<li>Sunglasses<\/li>\n<li>A lightweight waterproof (because British weather loves surprises)<\/li>\n<li>A fully charged phone with a navigation or walking app<\/li>\n<li>Comfortable footwear with plenty of grip<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Planning your route before you leave is always the best way to avoid unnecessary detours, especially if you\u2019re exploring somewhere for the first time.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Too Hot to Hike? Try Indoor Climbing Instead<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If it\u2019s one of those days where even the shade isn\u2019t enough, why not swap the trails for an indoor climbing wall?<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Climbing is a brilliant full-body workout that builds strength, balance and confidence, while keeping you out of the midday sun. If you\u2019re giving it a go, wearing proper <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adidas.co.uk\/outdoor-climbing-shoes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"11666\">climbing shoes<\/a> makes a huge difference compared with ordinary trainers, helping you grip smaller holds and move more confidently around the wall.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I use Strava for almost all of my longer walks, trail runs and more. Before I head out, I like knowing exactly where I\u2019m going rather than stopping every five minutes to check a map or wondering if I\u2019ve taken a wrong turn.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of my favourite features is being able to discover and build walking routes before I leave home. If you\u2019re exploring somewhere new, subscribers can also download routes for offline use, making them accessible even without a phone signal, and follow turn-by-turn navigation to stay on course.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once I\u2019m home, I love looking back at my route, distance, elevation and photos from the day. It\u2019s a great way to keep track of where you\u2019ve been and discover new places to explore next.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019re thinking about upgrading to Strava Premium, you can save 20% using my code\u00a0<strong>ELLE<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-dots\"\/>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the biggest misconceptions about hiking is that you need mountains, expensive kit or an entire weekend to enjoy it. You really don\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sometimes all you need is a pair of comfortable shoes, a bottle of water and somewhere beautiful to explore. If like me, it\u2019s on your doorstep, thats a bonus!\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether you\u2019re after an easy walk, training for a bigger adventure or simply looking to escape the heat for a few hours, Epping Forest has some of the best walking routes within easy reach of Central London.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019ve got a favourite route that I should add to my list next time, let me know. I\u2019m always looking for an excuse to spend another day beneath those ancient trees.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong>Elle <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.keepitsimpelle.com\/3-epping-forest-walks\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This page may contain affiliate links \u2014 they are marked with a *.
