Description

This route is mostly similar to IbsCoa one, but it avoids the problem paths described by Ken in his review by using the path around the north side of the old Cliffe Hill quarry east of Stanton under Bardon and the path from Cliffe Lane to Markfield. It also slightly shortens the route out of Ibstock. I have test walked it without any serious problems. All of the paths are easy to follow, but the route is quite industrial, and there are some muddy sections, stiles and a few steps

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.
