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.

14 Apr 2024Wraysbury to Ascot:
Wraysbury is a small town with a couple of pubs and Co-op shop. The way towards Wraybury station leads through a nice footpath next to a pond. I was lucky to be surrounded by the smell of blooming lilacs there. Once past the railway station the route turns to a footpath which can be muddy at times. I was walking there only a couple of days without rain.
When the route crosses the railway line, it follows another nice footpath between a pond and a stream. It can also be muddy but apart from the incessant succession of planes departing from Heathrow, it was also quiet. I noticed a bench in the middle of this footpath.
When the route reaches Egham, it goes next to a motorway but half of this section is on a separate footpath down below the motorway so it's not so noisy. Once past the bridge over the Thames, the route continue via a meadow. This meadow was a bit waterlogged when I was walking there and I had to select another footpath closer to the edge of the meadow to avoid the soggy ground. There is no harm in walking along the meadow edge up to the point where the route starts to go uphill.
The next section towards Bishop's gate is also easy to follow and through quiet streets which end at the entry to the well maintained Windsor park. The route then mostly follows paved roads and it is easy to find the right way because many potential turns are marked as inaccessible to the public.
I'd recommend walking this route with good shoes, long trousers and after at least 10 days of warm weather.
