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.

  1. Complete the survey training.

A walked an approximation of this route from Broughton to Kibworth. This has the makings of a decent route, but the GPX plotting is frankly appalling. Just look at that straight line through the housing estates on the way out of Broughton Astley. There are lots of details missing and the result is a route that underestimates its distance and is no use to anyone not prepared to do a lot of interpretation and guesswork. I will submit an alternative shortly and write a detailed review with pictures there.
