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.

Sandsayre
29 Aug 2023There is a potentially dangerous stile on this route as you join the Charlbury Road at Leafield. The stile is through a tall roadside hedge, dropping onto a very narrow verge straight onto a fairly busy 'B' road on a blind bend. Alternative route created WitCha Two which avoids this stile. Otherwise it's a lovely route, so we created Witcha2 which has the alternative safer crossing of the Charlbury Road at Leafield.

29 Aug 2023Correction, the potentially dangerous stile is as you join the Charlbury Road at Finstock (not Leafield as previously stated).

16 Feb 2024Couldn't agree more with Sandsayre: the stile joins the main Witney-Charlbury road, can't be seen from the road and is extremely dangerous. Avoid at all costs.
