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.

Berkshire Walker pledged to walk Whimic one
Walk this routeIt isn't the most inspiring walk coming out of Basingstoke - which takes 5 miles - hence only giving it 3 stars. We took a detour at the bottom of Dummer Down Lane, walking straight across Duxford Lane to go into Dummer Down Farm and have lunch at the Honesty Cafe. Another possible alternative would be to follow the Wayfarer's Way from Dummer to Duxford Lane, crossing it and following the permissive route which would link to a footpath taking you back to The Holt - again adding about 1/2 mile but cutting out over a mile of road. The path out of Blackwood still needs a detour - which was blocked by fly tipping just before Larkwhistle Farm Road. In summary, I'd walk from Dummer to Micheldever again (and have done most of it previously) but not from Basingstoke to crossing the M3....

Leaving Winchester one shares the route with the St Swithuns Way and Camino Ingles (St James Way) along the River Itchen. Kings Worthy is the last main settlement before Micheldever Station. There's a direct train between Micheldever and Winchester which makes it an easy route to access....

The route starts at Micheldever Station (Photo 1). The Slow Way is supposed to leave the road for a private lane [SU531421]. It’s only a short detour to continue along the main road and reach the other end of the lane via a byway. The Slow Way leaves Dummer via a remarkably fancy stretch of the Wayfarer’s Walk (Photo 7)....

Walk this routeAn overgrown byway (Photo 3) then heads east to join the Micheldever Road. There is then a long walk south alongside the busy Overton Road with a narrow verge (Photo 5). It occurred to me that an alternative final stretch would be to stick to the Micheldever Road and take the Andover Road to the station....

An informative walk north from Winchester which visits a nature reserve, and the route of a former railway; before crossing farmland to Micheldever Station (pronounced Mitch-el-dever). The footpath north is on the edge of Winnall Moors Nature Research, itself on the western edge of South Downs National Park (Photo 2). There’s a final recrossing of the railway and a footpath that heads north parallel to the line....

Ian Deeley added Winmic two, a new walk from Winchester to Micheldever Station
Walk this routeThis route has a LOT of road walking, has a ridiculous diversion towards the end, and has a few obstructions (stiles, narrow gaps), that make it unsuitable for wheel users. The killer, however, is that a section in the middle of the route is not a right of way....
