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.

25 Sep 2021Quite a pleasant walk, which ticks all the Slow Ways boxes, starting with a mile or so through quiet suburban streets, and then following a drainage ditch (a nicer walk than it sounds!) to the river Witham. (When the ditch meets the Witham the footpaths can be a little confusing - the signed path takes you away from the river through a farmyard and onto the busy Hykeham Road. It's not much of a detour but not particularly pleasant. Instead take the other, unsigned, path through a gate and between fences which takes you to the river bank.) Once you cross the very busy Newark Road go through the car park to the left of the Plough Inn and take the well surfaced Riverside Path which leads right into the centre of Lincoln. The section from Hykeham to the Plough isn't suitable for cyclists, but the Riverside Path is ideal. In fact for large parts of its length there is a parallel footpath and cycle track the footpath being closer to the river bank.
The slow ways web site has three versions of this path but as far as I can see they're all the same. I'm not quite sure why!.
