Find the best Enfield walks. The Ramblers Association now have a greatly improved website which is an exceptional resource for all walkers, hikers and young families wanting to go for walks with young children. This site lists everything from historical walks to leader led walks to any really arduous walks within the Enfield area.

Find A Walk Near Me by using Walking Britain is a truly excellent and free resource. Just enter where you are or where you would like to walk - and print out directions. The walks are graded and you can buy a specific map of the area at the same time. These are proper OS maps and weather proofed if required.

I always think of walking as one of the few activities you can do for free - and now you can with this guide!

Walking, Hiking and Outdoor Shops

Millets

21 Palace Gardens, Enfield EN2 6SN, UK – 020 8102 0182

Been here a couple of times now. Well stocked and very reasonably priced for what you get. Clothed a family of four with boots coats gloves and thermal for under £500. They even gave us a very nice discount. Staff were very helpful but they could do with a couple of more on the shop floor as we had to wait for them to serve other customers I am sure that they must lose business because of this.

Great shop with good range of sport &, camping. Good prices and bargain sales almost always available. Drop it!

The Range, Enfield

Suez Rd, London EN3 7SY, UK – 020 8804 5269

On a recent visit I required assistance as the store had changed location of stock. i was given help by two different people. One even offering to get my husband a wheelchair. Well done. Polite and friendly service. Thank you. Vera Cook

This is a great store ....they have everything you need an more for your home..prices are very responsible. ....would definitely recommend. ....

Sports Direct London - Enfield

Enfield Retail Park, Great Cambridge Rd, Enfield, Middlesex EN1 3RN, UK – 0344 332 5175

Large Sports Direct store. Plenty of car parking. A very convenient location.

Usually busy , difficult to find staff when you want to try footwear, however generally when you find someone, they are helpful. Some of the cashier's are more worried about their make up than customer service!! But that's just certain individuals I suppose!!! Ideal for quick shop for holiday bits etc..Glad we got one in Enfield.

WalkingWorld.jpg
Another good walking guide. Walkingworld has huge library of guides with a good selection of walks, of varying lengths and grades, pretty well anywhere in the UK.

Camping and Caravaning

Lee Valley Campsite, Sewardstone

London, Sewardstone Rd, London, Waltham Abbey, Chingford E4 7RA, UK – 020 8529 5689

Place was pretty good to stay at! My girlfriend and I went here and rented a cocoon to stay for about 4-5 nights, had a pretty wonderful time. The camping site itself looks pretty clean, it's not too crowded and not too expensive... Oh, we got to see a fox which we could almost hand feed as well! The bus stop is literally in front of the campsite itself as well, so that's also a plus point! The only problem I had (being the energetic, low budget student I am) was that there was little to do around the area itself. Places to eat were quite scarce (beside the site itself selling food). All in all it was a great little 5 days I had spend there, would definitely come again someday when I want to camp again!

This campsite has very good quality services and the staff are really helpful. We stayed in a cocoon and found it to be clean and comfortable. It was surprisingly well kited out with cooking equipment and a fridge. The TV didn't have very good reception but has the facility to watch a DVD. To top it all off the site has a really nice atmosphere when chilling out in the evening.

Lee Valley Camping and Caravan Park, Edmonton

Meridian Way, Edmonton, London N9 0AR, UK – 020 8803 6900

Easy accessible from London, great location. Stayed in cocoon which was good value for money, however the bed was extremely uncomfortable. Campsite itself is great, good facilities with decent toilets and showers. Site shop is very limited so please make sure you visit shop beforehand. We hired BBQ for as little as £10 (you pay £20 but £10 is given back to you once you return BBQ). Definitely coming back!

The staff where very helpful and friendly. The campsite is well maintained and as plenty of facilities, the only reason for me going though is because it's so easy to get into London from the site, if not going to London you wouldn't go there I guess.

Theobalds Park Camping and Caravanning Club Site

Theobalds Park, Bulls Cross Ride, Goff's Oak, Waltham Cross EN7 5HS, UK – 01992 620604

Lovely site, excellent facilities, train link to London a short walk away (about 20 mins). Also good bus links. Plenty of shops nearby and good pubs within walking distance. You can hear the M25 at night but it is not too loud. Had a lovely long weekend.

Been to this site for the last 3 years very clean toilets and showers are spotless the staff are very very friendly. The grounds are kept to tip top condition. The staff are all ways willing to help you from setting up your caravan to letting you use there power extension leads. Top class site will all ways be returning.

Snake bites

Most snake bites in the UK are not serious. But it's important to get all snake bites checked as soon as possible.

Call 999 or go to A&E immediately if:

  • you think you, or someone else, has been bitten by a snake

Find your nearest A&E

Information:

If you're not in the UK when you are bitten by a snake, contact the emergency medical services in the country you're in.

Get foreign travel advice on GOV.UK

What to do while you're waiting for help

Do

  • stay calm, most snake bites in the UK are not serious and can be treated

  • keep the part of your body that was bitten as still as you can

  • lie in the recovery position if you can

  • take paracetamol for any pain

  • try to remember the colour and pattern of the snake to tell the doctor

  • take off any jewellery and loosen clothes near the bite, in case it swells

Don’t

  • do not go near the snake, or try to catch or kill it

  • do not try to suck or cut the poison (venom) out of the bite

  • do not tie anything tightly round the part of the body where the bite is

  • do not take aspirin or ibuprofen, as they can make bleeding worse

What happens at the hospital

You will usually need to stay in hospital for at least 24 hours if you have been bitten by a snake.

The bite will be cleaned and bandaged. You may be given an injection to help protect you from tetanus.

If you were bitten by a poisonous (venomous) snake you will be treated with a medicine to fight the venom. This is given through a thin tube into a vein, called a drip.

Types of UK snake

Only 3 types of snake are found in the wild in the UK.

The adder is the only venomous snake, but you should get all snake bites checked as soon as possible.

Telling the doctors the colour and pattern of the snake that bit you could help them treat it.
