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.

I really enjoyed this route. Done on a very hot summer day. In such conditions carry plenty of water and sun screen as not much shade on many parts of the route.

We followed the route on the slow ways app and it was relatively easy to stick to. No challenging ground for the able bodied, though some path sections are very heavily grown with nettles.

We stopped for ale refreshments at The Full Moon in Cholesbury and again at the Jolly Sportsman on the road into Chesham.

The majority of the final third of the route is on roads but overall very pleasant.

I walked from Tring to Amersham, on an overcast but dry Saturday.

From Tring's High Street I soon followed some narrow public footpaths to cross the A 41 (M) on a loopy bridge, and ended up in Tring Park. It was a fair climb up a muddy hill, but it wasn't too bad. The views were pretty good when I looked at where I came from. Once at the top, my route went through a wood, and spotted the "Riddle of the Ruin", where I got a little lost as the path was hard to see due to so many leaves. It wasn't a big deal though and soon I left Tring Park and I continued to follow a foot path at the edge of a field, avoiding the road on the other side. After a little while this was no longer possible and had to walk a little on the road. It wasn't busy though. At the end of the field, the route then proceeded through woods, where the paths were fairly muddy still. After crossing a field with a hedge on the left I walked towards Shire Lane, which I followed for a while before ending up in some private woods where you definitely couldn't cycle, but horse riding was fine. I got a wee bit lost as the paths weren't mapped very well. At the other side and across from the cricket pitch I came upon a lovely windmill. I walked down the steep Ray's Hill, where the SlowWays route indicated a direction that wasn't possible. I had to continue down the hill along the road for a few hundred metres more, before then following a public foot path again. This stretch of the walk was in the bottom of a valley with a reasonable good foot path, no fence to the left, and woods to my right. The path was a little muddy all the way and along Ramscote Lane. There my walk led me towards Chesham in between hedges and fences. The section through Chesham wasn't very nice, with loads of cars on the road, and parked on the pavement, although the high street itself was okay. After passing a play ground, tennis fields, and an allotment, the walk went underneath the Metropolitan line tracks up the hill and through Chesham Bois Wood, where a lady asked me whether I had seen her white dog — I had not. After coming out of the woods, and crossing Chesham Bois Common, there was a short section to the train station, where I (of course) ended up missing my train by 2 minutes.

A lovely walk, a little muddy, and the section through Chesham was my least favourite.

Nice route, but note there are a few potentially muddy bits and over 2 miles on pavements going through Chesham and Amersham.

From Tring High Street the route goes up between the houses and crosses the A41. Then across pleasant open land before climbing up into the woods above Tring. Pleasant walk through the woods before joining a lane for half a mile or so. Back into woodland for a few miles, dry in April but can really muddy in the winter. Route emerges onto a road that takes you into Cholesbury. There is a maze of paths when you approach Cholesbury common. Just head for the road on your right and you cant go wrong as you will emerge onto the common whichever path you choose. Across the common and down a lane before joining pleasant valley walk that takes you almost into Chesham. First part of this path can also be very muddy. Past horse paddocks, down a track that leads to a path parallel to the road to take you into Chesham. Route now involves a couple of miles pavement walking through Chesham down into Waterside area. Route passes under the Metropolitan line and climbs into Chesham Bois woods, passing a memorial to Thomas Harding a lollard burnt at the steak. Path emerges on a roundabout in Amersham so last half mile or so to Amersham Station is on pavement.
