Description
Leaves Tring via network of footpaths. Joins the towpath of the Wendover Arm of the Grand Union Canal. Follows footpaths round reservoirs before joining main towpath of the Grand Union Canal. Pub at Startops End. After briefly leaving, rejoins towpath which it stays on, unlike earlier versions of the walk. Carries on until swing bridge which it uses to cross the canal. Footpath through woods and then pavement into Pitstone. This slightly longer version of the walk avoids the overgrown and uneven footpath on the "other side of the canal" and also the stretch of lane walking along a 60mph road

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.
