Giro veloce in bici da Tiptree a Witham

Set off from Tiptree, a village famous for Wilkin & Sons jam (if you love marmalade, you’re in the right place!), and pedal your way west towards Witham. This roughly 13.4 km route offers a relaxed mix of cycleway, quiet country lanes, and the odd stretch of gravel or track to keep things interesting. You’ll encounter some gentle slopes—nothing too taxing, with the ascent peaking at around 73 meters.

Most of the ride is on good, paved surfaces, with occasional rustic patches, so it’s best to bring a hybrid or sturdy road bike. The scenery shifts from the agricultural fields surrounding Tiptree to the leafy outskirts of Witham, a historic market town with a charming high street and beautiful riverside park—perfect for cooling down post-ride.

Whether you’re chasing jam or market town vibes, this ride offers a bite-sized taste of Essex countryside.
