Help connect Peterculter

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 Peterculter’s Slow Ways.

Since it was short and close to the original route, I don’t feel that a new Slow Ways route is required. At this point other Slow Wayers may wish to turn left here and follow the signs to the city century and the station, had the route gone that way I may well have given it five stars....
