This walk was part of or training for the 2015 Gurkha Welfare Trust Trailwalker Challenge. This time we were in Essex for the Saffron Trail. We began the walk at Saffron Walden and headed south on the trail through Newport, Widdington and Henham where we turned back northwards retracing our steps via Audley End House to the start point.
