About

We will have a beautiful trail run across the south west corner of Epping Forest, crossing a section of Wanstead Flats before heading into the woodlands of the historical Wanstead Park. Some sections of the Forest will be muddy in early February, so trail shoes are recommended. There are toilets in the parkland and we will pause for refreshments at the Tea Hut. The run will be a relaxed pace, approximately 7-8km; suitable for anyone who can run or run/walk 5km and wants to enjoy a fun, chatty trail run; we operate a “no-one left behind” policy. The intention is to repeat this run in April/May when the same trails are drier and the spectacular bluebells have emerged in the Chalet Woods to experience the changing of the seasons. Hope you can make it. Starting and Finishing Point: Leytonstone High Road/Lister Road junction outside Leytonstone High Road Methodist Church (what3words location ///mercy.tides.jobs) Nearest transport: 5-10 minutes walk from either Leytonstone Station (Central Line) or Leytonstone High Road (Overground Suffragette Line). Public transport is recommended, however, street car parking is free locally in side streets on Sundays.
