BOXING DAY HIKE - Hainault forest circular walk -approx 15 miles
BOXING DAY HIKE - Hainault forest circular walk -approx 15 miles
Debden to Hainault Forest Circular Hike (Approx. 15 miles) Join us for a rewarding circular hike exploring one of London’s largest and most atmospheric ancient woodlands. Starting and finishing at Debden Underground Station, this approximately 15-mile walk combines forest trails, open countryside, and quiet suburban edges, offering a real “escape from the city” feel while staying firmly within Greater London. From Debden we head east into Hainault Forest Country Park, following a network of woodland paths beneath ancient oaks and hornbeams. The route takes in wide forest rides, ponds, and grassy clearings, with seasonal highlights ranging from spring wildflowers to autumn colour and winter birdsong. We’ll pause along the way for short breaks and a longer lunch stop, making the most of scenic spots within the forest. The walk is mostly flat to gently undulating, with a mix of woodland tracks, fields, and some paved sections. While there are no major hills, the distance makes this a moderate to challenging hike, suitable for regular walkers with a good level of fitness. Please bring suitable footwear, water, lunch, and weather-appropriate clothing. This is a great opportunity to enjoy nature, stretch the legs, and discover a beautiful green corridor on London’s doorstep. Meet at Debden underground station. Use contactless payment, cost will vary depending on your starting location. As the group size is limited, please only rsvp if you will definitely attend. Walk start: 09:45 from Debden underground station. Estimated walk ends 16:00 at Debden underground station. Pub stop for lunch. Bring a packed lunch. *How to join?* - The walk is entirely free of charge; - You only arrange for your own travel and pub expenses; - Understand our terms and conditions below (the "IMPORTANT" part); - Understand how to stay safe outdoors, as you will be responsible for yourself. See our quick safety tips: http://www.meetup.com/Free-Outdoor-Trips-From-London/about/ - Please answer the RSVP question; Guests with missing or incorrect answers will be removed from the list! *What to bring* - Plenty of water, 1-2 litres recommended - Enough snacks and packed lunch to keep you energized along the walk - Extra snacks and an extra packed lunch just in case - Rainproof (ideally waterproof) clothing, sturdy shoes/boots you don't mind getting muddy - Spare socks - Walking poles and/or an umbrella :-) - Yourself... - ...and your camera! - Cash for train ticket - Cash for pub at the end of the walk? Feel free to ask any questions in the comments section! IMPORTANT Please bear in mind this is a free of charge, self-guided trip with a hobby group. It is not organized by a business nor any entity with commercial purposes. Any trip details, travel advice, route planning, instructions and other content in our group merely represent our shared personal knowledge, research and suggestions as outdoor enthusiasts. As this is no business, there is no "product", "service" or "package" and also no "tour guide", "operator" or "walk leader". Each participant is responsible for their own safety. Even if some of us are very experienced walking outdoors, nobody assumes responsibility for any kind of injury, damage or loss that may happen. Despite this, we take extreme precautions and all trips we plan are very safe, fun, highly educational and popular. Our experienced members volunteer their time and effort to shape a pleasant and quality adventure for everyone :-) By participating you acknowledge and agree with this disclaimer. Here are our tips on staying safe during outdoor trips: http://www.meetup.com/Free-Outdoor-Trips-From-London/about/ TRAVEL, ACCOMMODATION, INSURANCE Although we provide detailed suggestions, each participant is expected to arrange their own travel - this gives everyone the freedom and choice. Anyone interested in travel or outdoor insurance should also arrange this on their own. As mentioned above we always take extreme precautions, but some people may still feel safer if covered. As most of our trips are confirmed or postponed very close to the event date - heavily depending on the weather forecasts - we advise not to buy this until the last minute. People getting tickets from the same station are encouraged to meet early on the day to benefit from discounts such as GroupSave. Any questions, feel free to ask below or send a private message!
