Description
This alternative route tries to use more footpath and get out of the way of road users. We walked a slightly different route to start with but on testing there are no footpaths near the solar farm that low you to just pop across which meant a detour was needed. This route does cross the railway several times over a mix of stiles and gates. We saw frequent trains so care is needed. This also makes more use of footpaths in Wymondham itself. On the busier stretches of road there are pavements but it is hard to get footpaths in this area that joined up - might be a good area for a make ways. The lanes were relatively car free even on the way out of Attleborough bar some white vans. The route is a little wiggly near Spooner Row but we tested the other ways. We looked at crossing the A11 sooner but the road was busy and the pavements did not fully extend the whole stretch needed

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.

30 Mar 2024See the route description for some of this - we walked and planned pre loading to the site. It's still got a few roads in but they were generally quieter lanes - noting we walked this on a Saturday spring afternoon so traffic may vary. It could be more direct in places but some of the roads in the area are quite busy and it makes it less pleasant to walk. Four stars as it was still road routes but some stretches were quite lovely including cottages , wildlife and the railway.
