Our Story


"Hi, I'm Jack, and I started Essex Adventures after my cancer diagnosis in 2020. It made me realize how important community and shared experiences are. I wanted to create a welcoming space for people to connect through hiking. Whether you're a seasoned hiker or just starting out, you'll find a friendly community here. We explore the beauty of Essex together, build friendships, and enjoy the simple pleasures of being outdoors.
Essex Adventures is about community and the outdoors. We're passionate about helping people discover the joy and benefits of hiking, from improving fitness and mental wellbeing to forging lasting connections. Through social hikes and challenging adventures, we aim to make the Essex countryside accessible and inspiring for everyone.
