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 Colwyn Bay’s Slow Ways.

We come to a busy road which has a path through the left hand verge, then go right, passing the Queens Head pub. We go right again at the T junction then left up through fields and through a farm yard, then down steeply on a slightly awkward narrow paths with steps and head high thorns....
