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.

04 Sep 2024I enjoyed this route. It does have stiles and muddy sections, but made for a good walk away from the shared walking/cycle route of the Granite Way. Could be combined with one of those returns to make a good circular route.
