Description
This is an alternative route that better meets the Slow Ways methodology. It predominantly follows a shared use off-road cycle path (part of the national cycle network route 66) along with sections of canal towpath and quiet roads.
The route is step-free with the only potential problems being a short section in Mytholmroyd where there are narrow pavements on a more busy road

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.

08 Jul 2023This is an ideal Slow Way route following national cycle route 66 from Hebden Bridge to Sowerby Bridge. Walked on a hot sunny afternoon, much of the route was along pleasantly shaded paths next to the railway. This route is flat, and step free. It would not be a problem with a pushchair and is potentially wheelchair accessible.
