Help connect Burtonwood
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 Burtonwood’s Slow Ways.

Once across two fields, we follow the treeline oast the pylon, before passing into another field, an often muddy track heading towards the motorway. Eventually, we join a grass track that runs alongside the brook, before we take a bridge and follow the earth footpath all the way to Bewsey, where we cross another bridge and follow a long paved road walk into Warrington....
Hiking Historian
Eventually we reach Moss Nook, where, after a brief paved road walk, we join an unpaved road passing a garage, which gradually becomes a track. This empties out onto an unpaved residential road; as it's a dead-end we come from, traffic isn't an issue. A short stretch of paved road brings us to the next footpath that leads through Wheatacre Woods....
Hiking Historian
Lastly, access to Wheatacre Wood can be made earlier than suggested by this route map....

Walk this routeA short walk through a residential area, and we're back along the brook, paved in some places, but mostly an earthern, and sometimes muddy, path that brings us out at Newton-le-Willows station....
Hiking Historian
One recommendation: you don't have to leave Lea Green station via the route given; theres direct access to Marshalls Cross Road from the station....
Hiking Historian
A couple of road crossings leaving Warrington, and a section of pavement-less road outside Burtonwood....
