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.

On the outskirts of Ashleworth, there is a Tithe Barn, which was a spot of magic on the route. Beyond Ashleworth, the route leaves the Three Choirs Way, which the route sporadically follows.
