The 20 circular routes, varying in length from 21/2 to 7 miles, give the walker the opportunity to explore the glorious countryside of Essex throughout the year and include woodland walks at Epping, Great Sampford and Great Waltham; scenic walks with lovely views on the Langdon Hills and Danbury Common, and beautiful waterside walks beside the River Cam, the lakes of the Lee Valley and the River Chelmer.There is also the opportunity to see the impressive Victorian Coalhouse Fort at East Tilbury; The Naze Tower, built in 1720 at Walton-on-the-Naze as an aid for shipping; the enchanting church of St Nicholas at Little Braxted, with its beautifully decorated walls; and, of course, Flatford Mill, a main feature of many of the paintings by John Constable.The author has divided the routes into seasons to show each at its very best.
