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.

03 Jul 2022This plotted route implies that there is direct access from the towpath to the road at the Nelson end, which is not the case. I know it is a small adjustment, but I had to go back on myself to find a way to leave the canal. I've created BriNel Two to correct this.

03 May 2021As with Burnley/Brierfield this walk is almost entirely on the Leeds/Liverpool canal towpath. Indeed it is a continuation of it.
The few streets after coming off the towpath in Nelson may or may not be relevant depending on any final destination.

03 Jul 2022Hi Tenpastbas, I've made a small adjustment to this route in BriNel Two at the bridge at Nelson as described. You may like to add you review to it, to help towards fully verifying it, as BriNel Two must be what you walked, I guess.
