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.

28 Jul 2022 (edited 29 Jul 2022)I attempted to walk this from Bingham to Newark, and succeeded in doing about 90% of it. This is almost a very good route (not a wheel friendly one as it has steps and a few stiles and is largely on unsurfaced field paths). Sadly the A46 crossing it uses is no longer possible - the road, a busy dual carriageway) is protected by barbed wire fences and hedges and the field path on the Thorpe side is little used, overgrown and very difficult to follow - I have created an alternative (Binnew 2) that uses most of the route I actually used instead - I decided that the best continuation from Thorpe north is to stay on the road up to the A46 bridge. I would also be tempted to modify the route out of Bingham slightly - it uses the bridge at the station which has steps on both sides, and it is not immediately obvious where the footpath beyond starts - there is a flat level crossing a little further east that might be better for anyone not arriving from the Nottingham direction by train. Most of the field paths are fairly well maintained and pleasant to walk, so most of the route can be used as the basis of a better one.
