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.

16 Mar 2025A very good route with one fatal flaw - no crossing point at the lock by the confluence of Aire and Calder at Castleford (photo).
I started at Castleford and very much enjoyed walking through the community garden at Castleford Ings. I wish I could have included it in the new version but sadly it doesn’t quite work.
New version Kipcas Two corrects this flaw, with little else changed.
