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.

The route is walkable and safe for most of the year although one section is sometimes overgrown with crops. Some of the route near the southern end follows roads and stony tracks when a nicer alternative is available for walkers. The route is not suitable for cyclists over its whole length so I would recommend making two routes, one better for walkers and one suitable for cyclists. Opportunities for eating / sleeping on this route are very limited. It is rather boring.
