Walks & Cycling

Billericay Countryside Walks

The walks have been developed as part of the Essex Wildlife Trust's "Living Landscapes" project with the support of the Town Council. The aim of the walks is to explore the countryside learning something about its management and the wildlife that lives there as well as giving you the opportunity for some healthy exercise.

Billericay Circular Cycle Route

The cycle route, developed in conjuction with the Essex Roads Cycling Club is approximately 14 miles long, looping around Hanningfield Reservoir, via Stock and Ramsden Heath, providing some stunning views along the way. The route is based on 'B' roads and country lanes, enabling you to enjoy the countryside without too much traffic. A hard copy of the map is available from the Town Council offices and Billericay Library.
