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.

19 Apr 2022I really enjoyed walking this route. I'd definitely walk it again.
You can expect woods, a reservoir, quiet lanes, moorland, stepping stones, riverside paths and good views.
There were a few wet and muddy patches towards the south of Denton Moor on the day we walked this route, but nothing unexpected and our feet stayed dry.
I am sure there is a route that would be more accessible. Perhaps someone (local?) could add an additional route option for this Slow Way?.

19 Apr 2022Really enjoyed walking this route, especially the stepping stones over the river. I 100% recommend this route. There's some walking down quiet lanes, but that was welcome after lots of walking on uneven ground earlier in our day.
