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.

Lovely route any time of the year. Cafés shops and public transport in the towns either end. Plenty of wildlife to spot along the way. There are muntjac deer in the woods either side. Herons nest in the trees. A couple of turtles can be seen sunning themselves on the banks. Time it right and you'll see the steam train go over the bridge at falling sands. Well maintained path, mainly flat.

Great walk. Easy to follow, easy to walk, safe and a pleasant walk along the towpath. Accessible wheeled as well.

A delightful rural canal-side stroll that takes about 90 minutes to complete.
The route is very accessible with readily available public transport links at either end.
The downloaded route is accurate.

    A lovely mainly flat level surface. Plenty of wildlife to spot. Look out for muntjac deer in the woods either side of the canal. Herons nest in the trees. There are a couple of turtles that love to sun themselves along the banks. Towns either end have cafés, shops and public transport. Time it right and you'll see the steam train go over the bridge. Lots to see all year round.
