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.

Report

I did Alcester to Redditch, it is a bit tricky finding the path from that way and there is a small part of the monarchs way that is overgrown not far out of the town, but otherwise lovely, if you walk it on a very hot day like me, stock up on water and suncream as there is not much shelter or any stops between Alcester and redditch to pick anything up, the x19 between Alcester and redditch runs hourly whichever way you do.

Report

Once past the main roads of Redditch, this walk is a beaut. You follow the River Arrow from the Arrow Valley Lakes as it meanders through fields, meadows and reserves before it deposits you pleasantly in Alcester, a lovely little town where there are a few pubs, shops and cafes to refuel and rest up.
