Slow Ways linking Willingham and Cambourne, Chatteris, Ely, Impington, St Ives (Cambridgeshire), Waterbeach
England / Cambridgeshire / Willingham
Willingham’s six Slow Ways are 46% checked
Help connect Willingham
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 Willingham’s Slow Ways.
