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.

07 May 2024I agree with Jane! This is a brilliant Slow Way. I walked it as part of a hike from Pewsey to Hungerford, which I highly recommend as a station to station walk. Everyone in both places should (if they haven't) give it a go!
I love canal walks for thinking and talking time.
I'd 100% walk it again.

13 Apr 2024Walked Hungerford to Great Bedwyn. Lovely April Saturday, warm, sunny, gentle breeze.
This is a super easy canal towpath route, and even better it has railway stations at either end, so excellent candidate for a #RailWalk. I came out of London for a day of gentle countryside and was not disappointed.
Mostly the towpath was dry and firm underfoot, (photo 5 is typical) but following such a wet winter its not surprising that there was some mud around. I was tempted to lop a star off, one short (50 metres) section was especially awful (photo 6), but since all else was splendid I’ve decided to be generous about what is, after all, seasonal mud. But - walking pole and good sturdy boots with high ankles would be advantageous in wet season.
Lovely cafe at Bedwyn, but closes at 3.00 so no dilly dallying! Bedwyn is chocolate boxy thatched, although missing a pavement, but there wasn’t a lot of traffic.
Some uneven ground, kissing gates, narrow bridge and a railway crossing.
