ホークウェルでの周辺の簡単なハイキングとウォーキング

The Saffron Trail threads through The Scrubs as a tree-lined path. This is actually a byway so look out for bikes, horses and even motor vehicles.

The woodland offers a network of pathways, including some extended routes, under the care of the Hawkwell Parish Council. This nature reserve once served as a brickworks, with the memorial standing at the entrance, and remnants of this industry are still visible. The picturesque circular trail guides you along with adjacent tracks and fields. Be sure to watch for the wealth of local wildlife, particularly the songbirds.

Covering over 130 hectares, Hockley Woods are the largest remaining area of the wild wood, which covered Essex after the Ice Age 10,000 years ago. A mixture of woodland paths and trails give a varied terrain to run. Lots of wildlife, a mixture of trees and a new car park. (Small parking charge applies)
