Description

A alternative to Wivwel 1 through Wellington, because of footpath closure. A nice route through open countryside. At the time of this review (Dec.21) the path around the Haywood Farm Estate at Nynehead was unclear and muddy, having recently been ploughed and not reinstated. However once around this the route is fine in either direction

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.

I walked this route in the Wiveliscombe to Wellington direction on a lovely sunny day at the start of July.
This was overall a lovely walk with no real difficulty and plenty of views to enjoy. The route is mostly on public footpaths and accross fields. It was relatively easy to follow with the exception of 2 locations around Manor Farm and Heywood Farm where the path crossing the wheat fields was not obvious.

You can get back to your start point using two bus services via Taunton (do check bus times before you set off especially between Wiveliscombe and Taunton).

I would definitely recommend this walk.

A nice route which is mostly on paths and quiet country lanes. There are diversions (at the time of the review) where there are construction works to the north of Wellington, and these are open to change. But there are notices identifying the route. Some muddy sections experienced.
