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.

16 Apr 2024Walked this route twice once as posted and once tring out a few short cuts. Walked after a lot of rain and the route held up well. One place between Somerton and Deddington was flooded but could make my way around with a little care. The One section I didnt like was walking near the M40, the noise drowned out my auido book :-(. So walking from Bicester to Deddington I suggest the follow detour: half way along the M40 you can turn left on to a footpath, cross stright across the B430 over a stile. cross the field diagonly and enter the Ardley quarry woods near the railway line and walk the SW and NW sides of the woods. The route has more stiles and more steps but less road and noise.
The Somerton Road after Fewcott is not the ideal but no way around that and its not too far.

02 Jan 2024Lovely walk between Deddington and Ardley. Ardley to Bicester is a bit more functional, Motorway noise, and walking through Bicester, but no way of avoiding that.

06 Sep 2022We walked this route starting from Bicester, and found it very much a route of two parts. The first half, from Bicester to Ardley, was very straightforward to navigate, but consisted of walking through the housing estates on the outskirts of Bicester, followed by a farm track and footpaths which were rather more pleasant. We made a slight detour for refreshments to The Trigger Pond in Bucknell, which was a delightful village pub. The route then went alongside the Chiltern Mainline railway and right next to the M40 motorway, which was as expected very noisy. I’d give this first half of the route 3 stars.
By contrast I’d give 5 stars to the walk from Ardley to Deddington. The noise from the motorway disappeared, the scenery was beautiful and it was a thoroughly enjoyable walk.

17 Jun 2022An easy to follow route with not too much on road. What there is appears quiet.
