Connect Clare with Slow Ways

We’re creating a network of walking routes that connect all of Britain’s towns, cities and national parks

more walks and reviews are needed to fully connect Clare to the verified network. Can you give a hike and help?

Slow Ways linking Clare and Acton (Suffolk), Bury St Edmunds, Halstead, Haverhill, Sudbury

England / Suffolk / Clare

Clare’s five Slow Ways are 35% checked

Drawn: 5/5

Help connect Clare

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 Clare’s Slow Ways.

The description sums it up well: mainly paths alongside fields, with some very quiet road walking through the villages. It was easy to navigate - most of the paths are well signposted and where the paths cross fields they seem obvious on the ground....

Lots of walking on very quiet lanes and farm tracks, plus some footpaths. One field had been recently ploughed and the path was lost, but it was easy to cross anyway....

A lovely 9 mile walk one way, some road walking but majority is through fields and along a river. Clare country park is also a nice place to visit....
