## WhatsApp Gary 07968585224 ### 🌄 Overview This spectacular **coastal hike** starts in **Frinton-on-Sea** and explores the wild landscapes of the **Naze Nature Reserve**, one of Essex’s most distinctive headlands. Weaving our way through Frinton, we arrive at **Holland Gap**, before turning Heading north along the coastal path. We pass **Walton Pier** and view the lines of vibrant, multicoloured beach huts. The seafront path continues to the Naze and the iconic **Naze Tower**. Following dramatic cliff-top paths with sweeping sea views we loop the coastline around the headland, and back to Walton where there’s time to relax with post-hike refreshments before the journey home. This route combines nature, coastal drama, and traditional seaside charm into a rewarding day by the sea. *** ### 🕓 **Schedule & Meeting Info** **Meeting Time:** **08:50** – London Liverpool Street Station (outside the ticket office near Platform 10) **Trains:** **09:18** London Liverpool Street → Frinton-on-Sea, arriving **10:48** **Tickets:** Return to **Walton-on-the-Naze** (buy in advance or on the day) **Hike Start:** **11:00** – Frinton-on-Sea Station (outside main exit) Lunch: **Pack Lunch** **Hike Finish:** **Around 16:30** – Walton-on-the-Naze Station **Return Trains:** **Frequent services back to London** 🚆 Train fare is **not included** – please purchase your own return ticket in advance or on the day. *** ### 🎒 **What to Bring** ✅ Hiking boots or sturdy shoes ✅ Waterproof jacket & layers for coastal weather ✅ Packed lunch, snacks & water ✅ Train ticket / Contactless / Travelcard *** ### 📏 **Grade & Distance** **Grade:** Intermediate **Distance:** 18 km **Hiking Time:** Approx. 4.5 hours **Terrain:** Good coastal paths, clifftop trails, promenades *** 👣 **Hike Leader:** Gary 📱 07968585224 📧 golondongary@hotmail.co.uk *** ### 💚 **Stay Connected** 📱 WhatsApp: 07968585224 📩 Mailing List: [https://www.golondonhiking.co.uk/contact](https://www.golondonhiking.co.uk/contact) 🌐 Website: [htt
