Wraysbury’s six Slow Ways are 67% checked
Help connect Wraysbury
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 Wraysbury’s Slow Ways.

From the station, a short section along the road (photo #1) leads you to a muddy path. The rest of the moor, although nice, with lots of Kites (photo #7) about, was so water logged (photo #6) that I most definitely did not keep my feet dry. The path was quite muddy there too, and there were a few inches deep puddles (more wet feet) (photo #9). Finally, a long section on a path with gravel alongside the next reservoir was easy to travel on (photo #10)....

Walk this routeThe walk out of Wraybury takes a lane past a mock windmill and the Perseverance pub, with an appropriate Slow Ways sign (Photo 1). The route leaves the village and crosses the railway (Photo 2)....

Unfortunately, the route is forced away from the river via Datchet to reach Wraysbury, but makes good use of green spaces en route. There is an urban walk into Wraysbury along a lane, and then the Welley Road (Photo 7)....

The route out of Wraysbury takes a footpath by Wraysbury North lake (Photo 1). A narrow footpath parallels the rail track from Wraysbury Station....

A Slow Ways that starts in Ascot, crosses Windsor Great Park, passes by Runnymead Air Force Memorial, then between a brook and lake into Wraysbury. The walk from Ascot High Street avoids roads via a couple of footpaths (Photo 1) to arrive at the Ascot Gate into Windsor Great Park. Historic Runnymead meadow could be visited as a detour from this Slow Way (Photo 6). There is then a footpath by one of the lakes, to emerge near The Perseverance pub, with an appropriate Slow Ways sign (Photo 10)....

There's a busy road to cross in Datchet to continue along the Thames Path although you could go along the golf course path to get to Victoria Bridge and also avoid the steep steps up to the bridge....

The way towards Wraybury station leads through a nice footpath next to a pond. Once past the railway station the route turns to a footpath which can be muddy at times. When the route crosses the railway line, it follows another nice footpath between a pond and a stream....

Walk this routeI walked from Egham to Wraysbury and the first mile and half plus was on roads, with the stretch beyond the major roundabout north of the High Street particularly unpleasant as it runs parallel to the A30 and M25....

I’ve routed via Datchet Common so that exposure to the Horton Road is kept to a minimum. Datchet Common is a bit rough and ready, but for me it’s a welcome contrast to the road alternative....

Walk this routeThe route goes through the centre of Staines, a lot of shops, cars and car park, culminating in a shopping centre leading up to the meeting point at the bus station....

A quirky, well drawn, and easy to follow route which connects the watery area of Wraysbury with the almost-Heathrow of Stanwell Moor. There is some pavement, but a feature throughout this area is that car drivers park right up on the pavement, completely blocking it. There’s a short stretch of B road at Wraysbury station, then the route takes a good footpath alternative alongside a lake to reach Wraysbury village....

Walk this routeThere's a really short stretch along the main road (which leads to Wraysbury station - Waterloo to Windsor line, but this route doesn't get that far). Another small green belt village: unlike Wraysbury there's not much by way of shops, but there is a post office and stores by the benchless village green. Public transport from Horton is the same bus that serves Wraysbury from Staines - an irregular bus service which may not survive another round of cuts I continued on from Horton to Iver on Hortive 3, and caught a train from Iver station....

Walk this routeNot suitable for wheelchairs as the path is narrow and there are stiles to cross to cross the railway line. The path could be very muddy at the Wraysbury end and also the brambles and nettles were spreading on to the path running along beside the railway. Otherwise a nice quiet walk away from most roads....
