Description
This is a more direct off road route than Matche 1 and 2. It is an easy route underfoot and mostly well waymarked. A lot of distance is across fields but also uses farm tracks and quiet roads and there are sections of attractive moorland and woodland. Apart from the sections into Matlock and Chesterfield which are mostly quiet and residential, there is only one short section beside the busy A632 at Spitewinter but with a good wide pavement. The route negotiates quite a lot of farms and at some times of year the conditions around the farms can be very muddy

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.
