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.

25 Oct 2021The first 2.5 miles of this route, from the bridge at Sandwich to the Ebbsfleet Roundabout, is alongside the main Ramsgate Road through the Great Stonar and Richborough industrial estates. It s not a particularly attractive or pleasant route, but there is no realistic alternative. The route follows the England Coast Path (ECP) throughout, but the published Slow Ways route does not follow the official diversion from Stonar Cut, which continues along the Ramsgate Road and avoids Richborough Port and truck park. There is currently no access along that part of the ECP, so you have to follow the diversion along the road to just beyond the Ebbsfleet Roundabout. From that point the ECP follows a rewarding route through the Stonelees Nature Reserve and Pegwell Bay Country Park (cafe and toilet facilities by the car park at the north end of the park). It then continues to Cliffsend, and along the clifftop path to Pegwell (two pubs). Then along the West Cliff Promenade (toilets) into Ramsgate.
The ECP is well signposted and waymarked along the whole route.
The sections through Stonelees Nature Reserve and along the clifftop between Cliffsend and Pegwell are unmade paths, which are narrow in places and include stiles, steps and kissing gates.
