Description
A replacement for Flilow One to tackle issues with accuracy. Drawn to mirror reviewed and surveyed route between Flitwick and Shefford, up to Meppershall where the route deviates. Also redrawn to avoid most of the road walking (there is still some in Gravenhurst and nearer Lower Stondon) where possible and waterlogged ground East of Gravenhurst in winter. Needs testing on the ground

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.

19 Aug 2024 (edited 03 Sep 2024)*Note: this route was walked in two parts from either end. please do not use direction of photo for guidance.
A longer slow way, 3.5hrs. A nice reasonably straightforward route, with only small amounts of walking in road in the midde section. Some paths overgrown, others not suitable for wheels due to narrow, undulating ground or steps. Some steeper sections and in summer field sections with hard mud. Few potential cow fields.
Good countryside views. would be 5 stars if access was better, and there was a good stop halfway. There is a few pubs along route at Flitton, Ward Hedges and Meppershall (latter a slight detour) with village shops at Meppershall. Bus stops on route but times vary and can be infrequent.
Please note correct entrance to Flitwick Moor (see photos) when travelling West to East.
