Help connect Padstow
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 Padstow’s Slow Ways.

As already noted, this is a superb cycle path with easy access for all and superb views along the Camel Trail. The only things to watch out for are the number of bicycles passing you (especially on a sunny day during school half term!). There is a wonderful cafe kiosk at the half way point but it closes about 4pm (I was lucky to be their last customer, for an ice cream!)....
