Leigh-on-Sea to Southend Pier and Display of Poppies

The pace will depend on the group as we walk along King Charles III Coastal Path along the Thames estuary with interesting vistas. We may need to have a diversion which would have a steep hill at the start before rejoining the King’s Coastal Path. This walk gives time to visit Southend pier (longest 1.33 miles) and the Remembrance Art Installation of over 110,000 knitted and crocheted poppies, with the opportunity of fish and chips before returning home. Please bring appropriate clothing for the pier as the weather could be quite different away from the shore. Please bring a picnic and drinks.Additional costs: £2.10 Pier entrance fee; £4.10 return ticket for Pier train.
