Description
As noone else had walked CowSou 1 I chose to walk this route instead (from Cowden Station).
Sometimes the changes I made were effectivej, others not so much but I will write it up (soon!) so others choosing this, that, or their own route will know what to expect. (Photos are not in order)
It could have been very muddy if the ground wasn't frozen solid almost everywhere!
Break options:
You could turn off the route, along public footpaths to Foxcombe to get a bus (231 Lingfield - Edenbridge - Tunbridge Wellls) or go to the pub. There's another a pub and a community shop in Speldhurst, but no bus I think

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.
