Epping Forest Xmas Ride

We have unfortunately had to cancel this ride this year. This is due to the limitations of the car park which mean that we would be unable to comply with the Covid 19 requirements set out by the BHS. We are very disappointed and know that you will be too, as this is a much loved ride.

See Events page for details.

Julia Wilson - Chair

Welcome to Essex Bridleways Association. A registered charity set up in 1979 to preserve and develop the Bridleway network in Essex. Run entirely by volunteers, we work tirelessly campaigning and working with the authorities to improve, restore and create a safe riding environment for riders in Essex. Funds raised through our membership and pleasure rides pay to employ a Bridleway Development Officer and Historic Researcher; both help to further our work. We need your support to continue this important work so please join. As Essex becomes ever more developed it is imperative that equestrians are not forgotten and we are making sure this does not happen. The more members we have, the more likely it is that authorities will realise just how passionate we are to continue enjoying our beautiful Essex countryside.
