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.

30 Dec 2022 (edited 31 Dec 2022)Mostly this is a good interesting route. Cobham and Ripley are both old coaching villages on the old Portsmouth road; I enjoyed the semaphore tower on Ockham Common, and I was excited to go through Wisley Gardens.
However the public footpath through Wisley is suspended and has now been built over. The alternative through the car park isn't obvious unless you know to look for it, and has still not been properly adopted as a public footpath. I've decided to flag this route for access because as it stands it routes people through the middle of a shopping centre.
I've made an alternative route Ripcob Two which skips the car park and goes across Wisley Common instead. It's also a bit shorter.
