Do not come here no signal komoot takes you on a wild goose chase

As you enter the forest goes down and then up, make sure you have enough to take up the hill

fast flowing track

sandy loose gravel

I went down this trail yesterday 5 July 2025, coming from Kelvenden Hatch on a gravel bike. The trail through the forest was fine but as I neared the bottom of the hill my GPS indicated I was off route. As others have suggested the newish fence looks like it has been put in place to push you into a bog, which was dried up for me but only just after 4 months with little rain. It was also full of razor grass. It wasn't obvious which way to go, but I wasn't giving in and after some floundering around I managed to get through. Like the others ignoring the signs and lugging my bike across some quite deep ditches, which may be impassable in wet weather.

great food at the cafe! great roads also

Heading out of Braintree you hit the main road after this point. Careful of the traffic!

Albyns Farm Lake is a fantastic place to feed the ducks inside Hornchurch Country Park. Make sure to stop off and enjoy the view.
