This walk is a functional route between Enfield Town and Waltham Cross. On a bright day, I would rather take Enfiwalt Two as it is a lot more 'scenic' following the New River and parkland. However, this route gets the job done and goes through more built-up areas so it is safer to do alone....

With an automated crossing or footbridge at Cheshunt Junction and with a footbridge (many steps) at Marsh Bridge....

Tim Ryan

it is however twice the length of Walwal1 and uses a footbridge with many steps to get over the rail line. it is safe, and if you have the time makes for a good alternative....

Along the river was a little slippery when I walked it (but it had been sleeting that morning!)....

Jack Cornish

I followed this route from Enfield Town to Waltham Cross after doing the Wood Green to Enfield Two Slow Route....

Sarah

But it's short and not unsafe and I'm not sure what other options there would be to connect these two places in a nicer way....

Dan Barron

It starts at Waltham Cross station, and then leads through a shopping centre towards a section along a busy road....

Derick Rethans

It is not a *nice* route, but as it is short, and direct, it's not bad....

The route passes Cheshunt station, and you can jump straight onto the next route north towards Hoddesden without going all the way into Cheshunt town centre....

Jane Taylor

The route passes the Eleanor Cross from which Waltham Cross gets its name....

Jane Taylor

It’s a good and fairly direct route which makes the most of the available green spaces and footpaths, including the New River path....

A suburban route along residential streets, cycle lanes and roads from town center to town center. This is a wheel friendly alternative to Cheswal one....

I walked in a roundabout way from Cheshunt and Waltham Cross to Potters bar. POTCHE starts at the roundabout (shops cafes) heads East then south along suburban streets to a cycle path which takes you to gates outside Cedars Park. Together the above makes a wheelchair friendly route from Cheshunt to Waltham Cross. POTWAL goes under the tunnel along a track to the road which takes you to another track further on past a festival field and small holdings along Chain Walk past open fields until you meet the Hertfordshire Way and the beginning of Hemps Hill. Hemps Hill takes you through wooded tracks up to Northaw, a picturesque village (there’s a tap just inside the church gate but also a pub)....

Strider

There is a short busy road out of Cheshunt leading to an automated railway crossing with a footbridge 'bypass'. It seems a busy crossing so you may need to wait to wheel across....

Strider

The streets close to Enfield station are surprisingly green with lots of hedges, trees and plants. I might be tempted to walk from Waltham Cross to Waltham Abbey then to Enfield via the Lee Valley....

Strider

Starts well in Waltham Abbey High Street, nice shops, pubs , good views to the side....

Strider

It is suitable for cycling with about half on cycle paths and then some quieter roads to use in sections. It is an accurate route and I would consider it safe....

Mark Gills

The middle section through Lee Valley Regional Park takes only the paved paths and walks by some nice lakes and man made ornaments/sculptures....

Michelangelo

If you are walking the route for pleasure I would say there are better places to walk, for example nearby the walk from Cheshunt to Waltham Abbey (CHEWAL) is immensely more interesting....
