Tiverton’s seven Slow Ways are 61% checked
Help connect Tiverton
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 Tiverton’s Slow Ways.

A good option to DULTIV(two) which utilizes the Tiverton Old Road for much of its length between Bampton and Tiverton. Unfortunately although not heavy on traffic many locals use that road as a fast alternative to the main road in the valley and so drice accordingly....

Now that the building work appears to have finished on the Farleigh Meadows estate at Tiverton. The walk through here has been reinstated and it is no longer necessary to walk along the Rackenford Road at this point. I have included a screenshot of the route through this estate below....

Walk this routeThere were a couple of steep climbs to get the blood pumping, but considering this route travels across the rolling green hills of mid Devon it wasn't as hilly as you'd expect....

Involves more distance along the canal, rather than the quiet lane walking of tivwel2 between Halberton and Battens Bridge but makes for a route of an equal standard....

Charles Hedley
The southern section between Silverton & Bickleigh is generally on small roads/lanes, although some of them are too small for vehicles, so at least quiet and generally traffic-free. It also includes a noticeable climb of a hill north of Silverton, which does provide some pleasant views south towards the coast. The northern half of the route between Bickleigh and Tiverton is mostly on decent footpaths beside the River Exe....

The only bit which is less well signposted is the entrance to the footpath after Bickleigh Mill (good food, acceptable coffee)....

A very similar route to TIVWIV (one) but taking a route avoiding the road section between Uplowman and Tiverton. A quiet country walk with some climbing involved....

Glorious countryside and quite possibly the best way to get between Tiverton and Crediton. Misses out on a 5th star only because of a short section of undesirable road walking....

Lovely route - but needs amending due to an access issue at Shobrooke Park....

A mostly road route - albeit quiet lanes, with good countryside views. about 600 metres of this route after Nomansland is on a B road which is quite busy and with no pavement, in order to access the footpath. I recommend re-routing this section along the road to the north - WIVTIV2....
