Description
This is essentially the same route as HixUtt one and two, but plotted with more attention to detail, reflecting the waymarks on the ground and fixing a problem with the route into Uttoxeter, which used a non-existent path through a fenced off area rather than the obvious road route. We test walked it today - it is quite tough in places due to rickety and overgrown stiles, wet and boggy areas and lack of walkers, but it is walkable for anyone with enough determination. There are pubs en route at The Blythe and (just off route) at Kingstone. Shops and pubs at both ends

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.
