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.

  1. Complete the survey training.

I had wondered if the apparent detour around Dodford was worth it and stumbled upon two issues within a very short distance.
1 The route marked follows the line of a fence and not a footpath, not so critical if starting from Kidderminster, but leaving you looking for a non-existent path from Bromsgrove direction
2 The Dodford Inn in no longer a pub and has very recently become an events venue. I'm told it's open on a couple of days, but this diminishes its role as a place to stop.

The route out of Kidderminster towards Mustow Green is clearly posted, however local notices warning of adjacent private land ownership could be considered as intimidating.
The remaining route is delightful with a mix of woodland and field walking with some impressive views.
