Help connect Attleborough

Many Slow Ways have several route options. Some will be better than others, or good for different reasons.

Our goal is for each Slow Way to have at least one route that is verified and surveyed. To be verified – and get its snail badge – a route needs at least three positive reviews.

Give a hike and help get a for every one of Attleborough’s Slow Ways.

Latest Updates

Shortly after, you leave the road and join a footpath which takes you through some fields until Old Buckenham. After reaching Long Lane, you are suggested to make a right hand turn - there is a easily identifiable track, however the Slow Ways route suggests taking a left across a field to join some other path. (Green Lane) This brought me out at Heath Road, slightly further West of where the suggested route is. I turned left and walked along the road to rejoin the route. This next part is where I consider the biggest issue of the route to be - although there is a footpath marked from Heath Road, this is clearly not used often as it was not easy to follow, and this long stretch of walking along fields eventually reaches the perimeter of a farm - it was NOT clear which way I should be going, and I eventually arrived at a field marked with a 'bull in field' sign. The Slow Ways route suggests to then turn right and walk down Lodge Lane, however having checked Norfolk County council maps, this is indicated to be a PRIVATE road and should not be used. If you have reached Hall Road, the route suggests crossing directly over. The path then takes you into Winfarthing, and having left Winfarthing following a path, again the suggested route was quite tricky to follow. Although this was fine, when you reached far end of this path, it navigated round some stable fields, and the gate to rejoin the road had been padlocked and so had to be climbed over...

Hingham and Attleborough both good places to start or end, although on the date walked public toilets were not open at either....
