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.

Really enjoyable walk with an easy to follow route.
A fairly large section is on a quiet country road, which didn’t feel safe at any stage. The points to note are that you need to cross both the A146 and A143 which can be fairly busy.

I walked this route from Loddon towards Bungay.
Starting from Church Plain in Loddon, the route follows pavements and footpaths heading south, with no real challenges. The only potential difficulty is crossing the A146 just outside Loddon, which is a busy road between Norwich and Lowestoft, however this was easily negotiated, but care needs to be taken here. Once over the A146, the route follows footpaths and then a very quiet road, which approaches a farm (which looks to be referred to in the other route that was created). Heading south, there is a clear sign to indicate where the footpath which goes round the farm.
This then brings you to a very quiet country road, which heads south - while walking this there were barely any vehicles in either direction, so is very easy walking, heading down this road until you come to a water tower. At the water tower, there is a footpath directly next to it on which to continue on, and this eventually brings you out at a church and the Bungay Road.
Although slightly busier than the previous lane near the water tower, there was plenty of space on either side of the road to move out of the way to avoid any traffic, although again there still wasn't too much.
Following this road, this eventually leads you down into the village of Ditchingham. From here, there was pavements all the way until the end. The only other busy road to cross is at Chicken Roundabout, but again this was crossed without difficulty.
Once over the road, the paths are easy to follow into Bungay and the end of the journey.
The walk came out at about 7.5 miles, and took about 2 and a half hours of non stop walking. The only thing to be aware of is that there weren't really noticable facilities/shops after Loddon, until you reached Ditchingham and Bungay. Apart from that, the walk was very enjoyable (although there were 1 or 2 narrow gates to get through and walking on the edges of fields with fairly soft ground, so good footwear would be recommended, particularly after rain.
