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.

26 Aug 2024Overall this is a brilliant route but unfortunately we can't recommend due to a safety issue.
The route passes quiet woodlands, horse yards and pretty residential areas until it reaches the coast line. The views from Leigh on Sea looking out to the sea are beautiful. A real treat at the end of this route.

26 Aug 2024This trip from Rayleigh to Southend was OK apart from the two lane a road we had to cross it was pretty busy so was a little difficult to travel across we managed it and headed into Rayleigh from there and Hadleigh where we walked through a lovely nature reserve before getting to leigh on sea.

26 Aug 2024Really enjoyed this walk from Rayleigh out to leigh on sea. We passed through some lovely farm paths out of town and forests as well. The main issue we had was getting across a busy dual carriageway where it said the path was. We crossed it but there was a lot of traffic. Once we passed that and headed out of town to leigh on sea and it was lovely to get to the beach.

01 Jul 2022This route as currently shown involves (in my opinion) an unsafe crossing of the A127 - a very busy dual carriageway.
