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.

13 May 2022I felt that some small revisions would make this route a great deal more appropriate as a Slow Way; the revisions appear in my alternative version of Lydcin.
1. There's an error on a short section of the original route plotting, through a new housing estate on the outskirts of Cinderford. On my revised route I have moved the line of the route out of private land and curtilage and onto a PROW.
2. A section of the original plotted route north of Yorkley was found to be across branches laid at right angles across the path; I have made a short diversion along more obvious, easier paths.
3. The largest deviation I have made is to include The Dean Heritage Centre, a hospitable, long-established Forest institution. The Centre is open throughout the year, has a cafe and describes and explains much of the character of the Forest of Dean.
