Directions Website

Hike Essex is an established Ramblers Association walking group for working age people. https://www.hikeessex.org.uk/

Hike Essex is an established walking group for working age people. We have walks in the Essex countryside every weekend, as well as mid week evening walks between Spring and Autumn. We also have weekends away and regular socials. All our events are run by volunteers who have a love of hiking and the outdoors. At Hike Essex we think hiking is a great way of getting fit and meeting like minded people. We’re part of the Ramblers Association so for a one off yearly fee, (that’s less than a month’s gym membership), you can come along to any of our events. Why not join us this weekend on one of our walks, you can try up to 3 walks before becoming a member.

Hike Essex group just back from a fabulous week of walking in Portugal. The Sierra da Estrela Natural Park in northern Portugal provided the backdrop, renowned for its dramatic granite landscapes, alpine meadows, oak forests and rivers.

We also included some free time to explore Porto

Yesterday’s “Hunting the Bures Dragon” walk was a beauty — bright skies, warm sunshine, and a lovely group to share it with. We found plenty of hints that the dragon is still out there. A hot day, but a fantastic one.
