Description

Alternative route to Wobwob-one which has flight of approx 50 steps. This route contains only single steps but a couple of steep sections and the path is eroded and rough in places. There is a very narrow kissing gate and a kissing gate stuck half way. Not suitable for wheels

From station go uphill following road to Woburn Sands centre, at the double roundabout take Church Road, after approx 20m take left hand Sandy Lane. Follow till bench and take path into the woods. (kissing gate stuck half way) The path forks almost immediately, take the left hand steeper path which soon levels out. The path is easy to follow but is crossed by lots of paths. After field cross road and take opposite path into woods. Route goes round fence of reservoir and then past the ruin of Horsemoor farm. The path continues through open fields to Woburn

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.
