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.

Pack Horse Inn—Blackshaw Head

Slow Ways added Pacbla zero, a new walk from Pack Horse Inn to Blackshaw Head

Walk this route

There are some very boggy bits across Black Moor, north of the Gorple Upper Reservoir, that could be avoided by continuing on the PBW below the Gorple Stones for a further c.0.5km, and then taking the permissive path south that leads down to the dam past the rocky outcrops (great views!) on Shuttleworth Moor. The main problem with this route however (and hence only 3, not 4 stars) is that the Packhorse Inn is now closed so does not offer a proper Slow Ways destination/network node as such, so an alternative route and destination is suggested to Blackshaw Head (see photos 5 to 9 below). It's only really worth continuing to the Packhorse Inn (seen in photo 4 below, taken from Gorple Lower Reservoir dam) if you intend to continue on from there towards Haworth or Hardcastle Crags....
