The original Centenary Walk route was developed by Fred Matthews and Harry Bitten and published in 1978 to commemorate the Epping Forest Act of 1878, with an updated edition in 1992. The Epping Forest Centenary Walk has been popular with local ramblers and visitors to the area ever since. Matthews and Bitten, then members of West Essex Ramblers, between them created much of the LDP network in Essex. The walk covers around 15 miles, starting at Manor Park and finishing up in Epping.
