Description
Improved, more direct route from Sheffield to Eckington, following the River Sheaf before making use of the route for the Sheffield Round Walk to climb through Meersbrook Park and Gleadless Valley nature reserve. Finally, after a difficult (but safe) crossing of the dual carriageway ring road, the route descends into the Moss Valley and finally makes it's way through Eckington Park, a medieval deer park

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.
