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.

The wanderlost surveyor
16 Dec 2022This route has the potential to be a 5 star route. However, for the portion of the route out of Kidderminster, specifically at Kidderminster Golf Course, and between Dunclent and Mustow Green, associated waymarking signage regarding private property and trespassing can be intimidating. While further along at Dordale a series of electric fences obstruct the route, requiring a long road walking detour. In addition, the final km into Catshill is also unclear with missing waymarking to provide certainty of the route.
Despite all of the above in mind, the route is a very pleasant combination of field and woodland walking across a very scenic part of North Worcestershire.
