Help connect Haverhill
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 Haverhill’s Slow Ways.

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....

At the Haverhill end there is some road walking: the road is not very busy but in places there is no way to get off the road because the hedges come up to the verge....

There is no information regarding a diversion, but a quick search shows that the developers applied to close the path and have proposed to provide an alternative, but it is not clear when or where this will be. The rest of the route is fine and I will review it with my suggested alternative for the closed path....

Daisy C added Safhav two, a new walk from Saffron Walden to Haverhill
Walk this route90% of this route is good; however, the last section from Castle Camps to Haverhill uses a country lane that is just wide enough for 2 vehicles and there is no pavement....

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....

The only negative part is the first bit when coming out of Newmarket Town and going onto the devil's dyke, as you are walking beside a busy main road....
