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

After yesterday's walk, I know for sure: Gilsha one does not exist, at least the route drawn on the Slow Ways website. The GPX file contains the same data-points as Gilsha two. For my review of the route, see Gilsha two.

This is a poor duplicate of Gilsha Two (route is inaccurately drawn). It should be deleted.
