Overview

The walk starts by going in land and walking through Berengrave Nature Reserve before going along good paths to Pump Lane and then down to the river. We walk along to the Riverside Country Park (Toilets available). Walking out to Horrid Hill and then return  before heading off to the Strand. Toilets, benches and a café are available. We then walk back along the river , before visiting more rural paths in Lower Rainham, before going back to the River and walking via Bloors Wharf back to the Car Park.
