Help connect Hetton-Le-Hole
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 Hetton-Le-Hole’s Slow Ways.

The route leads you into somone's vehicle storage yard which does not have access to the country park hence I have created Hetmur two. The rest of the route is fine and has some lovely stretches of park and countryside. Please see review and photos for Hetmur two...

Walk this routeThis is a short route walking alongside a fairly busy road....

The first part of the walk is through the relatively quiet streets to the outskirts of the town where you join a short section of footpath then take a right turn onto a shared cycle path....

This Slow Way takes a direct route between the two settlements, mostly on a shared-use footpath/cycleway along the dismantled Hetton Colliery Railway line, with additional sections on other rights-of-way and pavements....
Richard Hockin
This attractive route contains a section on a public footpath across fields, followed by a section on the Pittington Way along the course of a dismantled railway line....
Richard Hockin

Then a few yards along this road, turned right onto the public path. The path comes out onto a road in Hetton le Hole marked with a Sustrans milepost. There are buses going from Hetton Le Hole to West Rainton (though not on a Sunday!)...
