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.

Walked from Doune to Callendar. First part from Doune is alongside busy A84 with lorries and coaches going past on narrow pavement, uneven in places. (CalDou Two avoids this part) Once off A84 route goes along quiet minor roads, across moorland and along old railway route. Not suitable for buggies/wheelchairs/bikes owing to locked gates.

First section out of Doune on A84 isn't great for walkers, but the rest is very pleasant
(NB: I've cycled not walked this).

A decent enough walk apart from the final mile on a busy road with fast moving traffic. A couple of locked gates and rough ground in places make it unsuitable for wheelchairs or similar.
