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.

  1. Complete the survey training.

Needs a better route, unsafe in many areas due to access and overgrown paths.

Overgrown paths unable to walk all the way some parts were fine but route needs changed.

This route is nice along the coast path but would be better following the path along the railway for some of it. The route is not plotted correctly out of Findon around the lifeboat service station. I was unable to walk the path across the river as very overgrown and I did not feel safe on the steps leading down to the river crossing so had to abandon.
