Connect Moffat with Slow Ways
We’re creating a network of walking routes that connect all of Britain’s towns, cities and national parks
more walks and reviews are needed to fully connect Moffat to the verified network. Can you give a hike and help?

Slow Ways linking Moffat and Abington, Biggar, Lochmaben, Lockerbie, Mountbenger, Samye Ling Tibetan Centre, Sanquhar, Thornhill, Tushielaw Inn

Moffat’s nine Slow Ways are 36% checked
Help connect Moffat
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 Moffat’s Slow Ways.
