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.

Report

This has the potential to be a sound route but the section which links the canal to Stourbridge High Street is impassable. A well established industrial estate and fencing forms a barrier. The issue can be easily corrected by following the Monarchs Way instead.

Report

A residential alternative that falls foul of the problem outside Stourbridge. Rather than following the Monarch's Way it follows a route which still appears possible on Google Earth, but in reality attempts to cross private land via fences.
