Description

Canrug has been failed due to a locked gate. David Sanderson offered a way around this but didn’t enjoy the long pounding of pavements so here on offer is a tried and tested off road walk from Cannock (station) to Hednesford then a roam over the Chase with a slight variation from Canrug-2 so an opportunity to mix and match. Only today another suggestion that the pavement section needs a better route. I hope you agree this could be it

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.
