Help connect Whitefield

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 Whitefield’s Slow Ways.

The Walk is not too long and has shops throughout the route. The terrain is both grass, pavement and mud so extra thought into footwear is a must. I would walk this route again as whitefield team stop has great links around greater Manchester. Due to the muddy thin paths along side the golf club, I would no advise wheelchair users....

This is a good enough route. Starting in Whitefield, it's mostly roadside pavement, but there are a few alley ways and through residential areas. As the route leaves the residential area, it follows a path in the woodlands near a golf course, and the path is too close to the golf course. It was muddy in the woodlands and made it a bit challenging to follow the route, but it's for a short distance that leads to a motorway footbridge to Phillips Park. It's easy to navigate the way out of the park and go through a residential area that leads to the Prestwich metro link....
