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.

Paul Chilcott
11 Nov 2023November 2023. Direction: Nantyglo to Blaina.
A direct and functional SlowWay that gets you from A to B safely and avoiding the main road all the way. If time allows, there is quite a bit of industrial heritage in the area, but off the direct route - including the Nantyglo Round Towers - the last fortified buildings constructed in Wales during the industrial revolution.

02 Jun 2022This is a good suburban route. There's nothing extraordinary about it, but it does the job. I created and walked it in response to the issues Paul had on Nanbla One, although I think it would be great if someone checked that route again too.
I'd certainly walk this route again.
