Description
This route avoids the school and business park in Keynsham (which I'm not sure is even a navigable footpath). It also takes a quiet roadside route to Saltford avoiding gates and styles and the main road. It uses more of the Bristol-Bath cycle route, including the ramped entrance to avoid a large set of steps. It follows the riverside path further into Bath centre passing the bus station en route to the train station

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.

03 Apr 2022A functional route between Bath and Saltford - really simple to navigate, accessible and broadly flat for the entire route. I think this easily meets the criteria for inclusion in the slow ways network (and does indeed avoid the issues of the other route).
I will say, however, it's a bit dull - especially the section along the Bath to Bristol cycle track (which is also busy). There are more attractive routes that could be taken - but this one is reasonably direct and very easy. The approach into Bath itself is, of course, great.
