Gosport’s two Slow Ways are 88% checked
Help connect Gosport
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 Gosport’s Slow Ways.

We walked around the park at the end rather than through it, as dogs are not allowed. But looked very pleasant for those walkinfy without dogs...

Plenty of wide open paths along the seafront. Would be good for bike rides. Mainly out of town...

Really short and direct walk (and ferry ride) from Gosport to Portsmouth and Southsea train station. We needed to take a detour around Victoria park which didn't allowed dogs and also might have been padlocked on the south east gate. The detour is obvious though....

The router through Alver Valley might not be a coastal path, but it offers good access, well made paths and has no traffic....

The gates at Victoria park, just before Portsmouth and Southsea station said that dogs weren't allowed in the park, but this could easily be avoided by staying on the southside of the train tracks for the last couple of hundred meters....

Quickly got out of town onto a shared, pedestrian and cycle loop which is a gravel path nice and wide with open grassland to each side. Lots of birds and wildlife about....

Lovely walk through Alver Valley Country Park. All on hard standing. Lot’s of history and wildlife to see....
Alison Hatcher
A good mixed walk with seaside walking, Country Park walking. Cafes for refreshments on route. There are connecting buses at each end and bus stops not far from the route making it a good one day walk....

Jonathan Brown added Stugos two, a new walk from Stubbington to Gosport
Walk this routeThis route is a good route but there is a better one north up the Alver Valley which is grade 2 and accessible. It has the advantage of going off road through some beautiful countryside to get to Stubbington. This new route Stugos 2 needs adding, whereupon a group of volunteers from Gosport Labour Party and the Rainbow Bar Community Archaeology project will survey and review it....

Good walk from Gosport to Portsmouth Town Station, easy to follow map on Slow Ways, surface conditions good, with flat pavement all the way....

Much of the route is shared cycle path so good for cycling and/or wheelchair access. As the route hugs the coastline its pavements or roads all the way although you could walk along the promenade in places. Not the most exciting route although the view of the sea and Isle of Wight are lovely....
