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.

Quite a cute walk. Very flat, good mix of footpaths, woodland trails, shore line paths, and pavements. Not totally accurate through the woods near Locks Heath Centre, but as this is such a small bit of the trip and LHC has many entrances, this is fine.

Challenging for wheelchairs because of the path through Holly Hill, but there may be versions that could make this viable in good weather. Holly Hill can get Very wet and muddy in the winter, so could be seasonally tricky.

Lovely walk along the seafront. New route takes into account the various marinas that you need to walk through. Very pretty.

This is adjusted route that takes into account lack of access from Universal Marina through Crableck Lane which now seems to be private.
Once over the Hamble its a lovel walk along the marina with some great views. Into Locks Heath remains a pretty nice walk. If you need a pub to finish your walk you might need to take a slight detour, although we don't know this area well so happy to stand corrected.

This was a really pretty route over Bursledon bridge and along the river Hamble past Universal Marina. Lots of people out enjoying a walk and the scenery. The route made good use of park lane walk with only a small section that was on a road that had no footpath, although we met no vehicles whilst walking this section on a Sunday afternoon.
