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.

Report

I Walked this from Wimborne to Ferndown and was very pleasantly surprised by how much I could cover without encountering traffic. A large part was along the River Stour which was teeming with early spring activity and on Ferndown Common saw my first Male sand lizard. I am local and loved this walked and will be doing it again soon.
