Connect Wemyss Bay with Slow Ways
We’re creating a network of walking routes that connect all of Britain’s towns, cities and national parks
more walks and reviews are needed to fully connect Wemyss Bay to the verified network. Can you give a hike and help?
Help connect Wemyss Bay
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 Wemyss Bay’s Slow Ways.

The route started from Wemyss Bay climbing up the winding road through a caravan park but it was not too steep. After a short stretch of pavemented road, I descended through the houses down about seven flights of steps to Inverkip station where there were more steps down, but there was a lift there.
