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.

12 May 2022A generally sound route but with a couple of faults in the plotting. I followed this route from Warwick to Leamington Spa. The choice of route through Warwick could not be faulted and made good use of roads with crossings and then green spaces. The first problem came as you leave the river to join the canal at Jephson's Farm. The plotting suggests that you join the canal on the near side, which you can't. The canal is an aqueduct so it's obvious that there's no way to join the canal on the near side but the group of us were left to figure out that you gain access to the canal by going under and then turning left before climbing a set of steps. It would have been really helpful if the plotting had indicated this. The second issue was the crossing into Victoria Park. The problem comes with the fact that the plotted line does not follow the path and suggests crossing the car park. This was not an issue going the direction we did but had I been walking this on my own, starting in Leamington Spa I think it would have misled me. The rest of the route into Leamington Spa was really pleasant and the use of the underpass to the station was a good amendment. A fuller review will be posted for the corrected version.

12 May 2022Lovely route, but inaccurate at two points. In particular, if you were heading from Leamington Spa towards Warwick, there would be a risk of confusion or going the wrong way after Victoria Park.
