Highams Park Boating Lake

Highlight • Forest

Tranquil oasis in the middle of Epping Forest. It can get busy at the weekends, but it's a really nice spot to stop and take a breather.

I think I found that drop on my last visit! I give it a miss as I was a little intimidated. Like Epping but struggle to find a decent loops but have fun getting lost. Hopefully can now follow some routes from Komoot now.

High Beach Viewpoint, Epping Forest

Highlight • Parking

Stop by this large, grassy clearing in Epping Forest for excellent views of the countryside beyond London and the M25.

There's a pub serving food here (The Kings Oak), and usually an ice cream van. There's also public toilets with a water tap outside which is really handy for top-ups on hot days!

Kings Oak Restaurant, Epping Forest

Highlight • Restaurant

Possible to get some refreshments here. Burgers and hotdogs, cold drinks or coffee. Just about food- don't expect mind-blowing experience. It gives you calories but that's it. Well price is not more than £5 so can't really complain. Hehe
