Help connect Ponteland
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 Ponteland’s Slow Ways.

Just about the most sensible and direct walking route from the centre of Ponteland village to the Kingston Park / Fawdon area, or vice versa, which offers a very nice walking experience with regards to variation in the surroundings. as well as for walking; past the Airport in a way which lets you take a look at the airport front building; then along Ponteland Road quite parallel to the Metro line which in many places allows you to view the trains going by, including taking you through the quiet and picturesque village of Woolsington and then past some (as of 2022) new or in-progress housing estates, ending with a cut through some housed areas via some well-paved footpaths taking you through to Fawdon....
