Help connect Buckingham
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 Buckingham’s Slow Ways.

There’s one bit where there are no waymarkers (near Lenborough) and it’s not immediately clear where the path goes as on the map it’s hard to tell which side of the hedge it’s on - the attached photos show the gate you should go through from both SC and Buckingham sides....

Just after passing the church in Beachampton, the path passes through a gap in the hedge that is hard to spot and is some way further N than the map shows....
OwainJohn
The stretch along the river is lovely but not enough make up for the road walking. Numerous stiles and some broken gates. The route out of Buckingham is not the most direct option....
OwainJohn
Easy to navigate and mostly gates rather than stiles until you get near to Steeple Claydon. Several fields have inquisitive cattle in at times....
