Description
This route was walked in early December after heavy rain, when part of sillott(1) was flooded and impassable. It does however mean using the road between Silverton and Killerton. This road has no pavement, wide enough for two cars to pass. It was not too busy when I walked it and I felt safe. The rest of the route is very pleasant, quite a lot on road, particularly through Ashclyst Forest, but these are quiet lanes. I am submitting this purely as a set weather option for when the fields between Ellerhayes Bridge at Killerton and Lower Hayne are impassable

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.

06 Dec 2023This was walked as a wet weather option to silott(one) when in early December when I set off from Silverton and found flooding of the path to Killerton. The route between Silverton and Killerton is entirely on the road on this route. The rest of the route was almost as described in silott(one). However at the M5 crossing at Burlake - identified as an issue by reviewers of silott(one) as not existing from the path and then described as going through Budlake farm. Silott(two) uses a well defined byway between the road bridge at Lower Buldake and the pavement alongside the B3181.I enjoyed the route, it was easy to navigate and I felt safe.
