Description
This shorter more direct alternative to Lisloo 1, deserves to be a 5* route. Unfortunately there was quite a lot of tree-fall in the woods. Some requiring major detours to find a way around. I shall be reporting those which have fallen trees blocking rights of way, which were an inconvenience. However one section, south of Herodsfoot was really bad requiring the need to find a way through thick woodland. This section is on a forest path - so probably outside the responsibility of the County Highways. Its a shame, as this really is a wonderful walk for the most part. I agree with the comments made by the reviewer of Lisloo1 that the climb up to Duloe is not necessary, unless of course to visit the Plough Inn. Also I walked this at low tide and it was fine. However on a higher tide the alternate route is clearly marked just north of Looe. Hopefully the fallen trees will son be cleared

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.

01 Jul 2023Great route. The trees fallen across the riverside path need to be cleared before it gets the 5* it deserves.
