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.

Report

A good route with off-road sections, followed by a lengthy paved road walk.

But the off-road sections necessitate this as foot only; wheelchairs and those pushing buggies will have a few problems. A short unpaved section leads to a footpath across fields, narrow in places, on an earthern track. This in turn leads to a stepped footbridge over the motorway, followed by another footpath, which can be overgrown by brambles and nettles in places. Beyond that, paved, especially the pedestrianised shopping area of Huyton. Away from Huyton Parish Church, an uphill walk through a leafy area surrounded by parks and golf courses, until over another motorway and into Prescot.

Good transport links and shops at both ends.
