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.

17 Nov 2023A great Slow Way in theory, but the section into Lower Penn is rather pointless as it adds 1km to what should only be a 6km route. I walked a route missing it out and will submit it as a separate Slow Way.

26 Oct 2021Having walked the off-road sections of the Wightwick to Wombourne route over the years I don’t think much has changed, so I have gathered some pictures together of the South Staffs Railway walk, here in the Wightwick to Wombourne direction.
