Help connect Gloucester
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 Gloucester’s Slow Ways.

danravenellison added Staglo two, a new walk from Staunton to Gloucester
Walk this routeI tried to walk this route with David and agree with his review. If a team cleared the vegetation from under the railway bridge at Pool Meadow, it may become a good and walkable route. If this happens, do let me know by commenting on this review and I'll change my review!...
