Progress towards triple-checked route options for Peacehaven’s four Slow Ways: 50%
Help connect Peacehaven
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 Peacehaven’s Slow Ways.

This is a lovely walk, following the well signed England Coast Path pretty much all the way - so it's dead easy to follow. I'd suggest it should either be by the Roderick Avenue bus stop - there's a few shops, cafes etc here and some buses along the coast road are limited stop and Roderick Avenue is the only stop that these buses serve in Peacehaven....
