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.

Report

This route bears no resemblance to what is on the ground. I don't know where he got his information from, but it is not correct. There are many access problems on this route. The logo is the only photo I will provide. This is the official project of the North Highland Way which has been ongoing since 1992.
