Surveys

We are working to build-up a picture of what routes look like. To do that we are asking volunteers to survey routes so that we can communicate features, obstacles and challenges that may make a route desirable or not.

Slow Ways surveyors are asked to complete some basic online training, but they are not vetted. If you are dependent on the survey information being correct in order to complete a route, we recommend that you think critically about the information provided. You may also wish to wait until more than one survey has been completed.

Help people know more about this route by volunteering to submit a survey.

Review of SlowWays Route Aledum (Alexandria to Dumbarton)
I walked this route on a sunny day in August 2022. It is a very popular route which follows the NCN7 Cycle Path for most of its distance. The only possible challenge is a section through a cow-field but the animals seem to be used to walkers and cyclists and completely ignore them. Lovely views and glimpses of the industrial heritage of the area enhance what is already an excellent route.
