SlowWays is a project to create a walking network for the whole of the UK. I've walked many of their routes!

#GetFediHired

Now following #SlowWays 🐌

Just walked and surveyed a #SlowWays route (Martor one, Marldon to Torquay, Devon)

https://beta.slowways.org/Route/Martor/1488

Took a few photos, too!

I had a lovely (long) walk reviewing three more #SlowWays routes, from Redhill to Netherne-on-the-Hill, to Banstead and finishing in Ewell. The first two now earned their snail 🐌 .

It was warm, and hilly, and there were many tasty berries.

A great day out!

Managed to sneak in a cheeky Slow Ways from Milford Haven to Haverfordwest before the rain started. Other than a few routes from Narberth, South Pembrokeshire is conquered with over 72 miles of Slow Ways surveyed this week. Over to others to walk and get them verified! 🥾🥾#SlowWays #MilfordHaven #Aberdaugleddau #Haverfordwest #Hwlffordd #Narberth #SirBenfro #Cerdedd #Cymraeg #Cymru #Wales #SheepOfMastodon

An impromptu Slow Ways adventure today from Haverfordwest to Newgale. A quiet & peaceful walk on quiet undulating roads. The one section off road was a well maintained, accessible Right Of Way. Nice stop at Nolton Haven for a swim. #Haverfordwest #Welsh #Hwlffordd #Newgale #SirBenfro #WildSwim #Slowways #Beach #Holiday #NoltonHaven #Cymraeg #Cymru #Wales #RightsOfWay #Footpath #Llwybr #Cerdded

MilfordHaven to Newgale Slow Ways adventure today. Beautiful views and weather over the area. Highlight was joining the Wales Coast Path a few miles from Newgale. My highlights include a paraglider and panaramic views across St Brides Bay. #MilfordHaven #WestWales #Newgale #Wales #Cymru #Paraglider #CoastPath #Cerdded #SlowWays #StBridesBay

Neyland - Haverfordwest Slow Ways completed. Mostly off road on the fairly new Brunel Trail, part of the National Cycle Network. Despite the rubbish weather there were great views along the Wildlife Trust of South & West Wales managed Westfield Pill and the countryside south west of Haverfordwest. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟. #SlowWays #WTSWW #Neyland #haverfordwest #pembrokeshire #Cerdded #Wales #Cymru #SirBenfro #Hwlffordd #BrunelTrail

A lengthy Slow Ways journey from Narbeth to Pembroke. Going via the hidden gem that is Cresswell Quay and Carew Castle. #Slowways #Narbeth #pembroke #CresswellQuay #CarewCastle #Cymru #Wales #cerdded #Llwybr #Landsker

Walking Princetown to Ashburton for #SlowWays today. Bit of a grey start but mist & cloud starting to burn off so hopefully will be a good day for it.

Another Slow Ways adventure after a sudden change of plans. Linking up the surveyed routes by doing the short route to Pembroke to Pembroke Dock. That links up Tenby through to Milford Haven. Hopefully others can get involved to verify routes. #Pembrokeshire #HolidayWalk #Pembroke #PembrokeDock #MilfordHaven #Tenby #SlowWays #Wales #Cerdded #Cymru #DynbachyPysgod #Aberdaugleddau #Penfro #WestWales

Ventured to the Wild West today in Pembrokeshire for a Slow Ways; Neyland to Milford Haven. It’s definitely not conventional beauty, but I loved the unusual landscape and scenery between the oil refinery and estuary. #SlowWays #Pembrokeshire #Neyland #MilfordHaven #OilRefinery #Wales #industrial #Cymru #Cerdded #Verigo

I reviewed Halwell to Dartmouth for #SlowWays today. It started off dry & warm, but the rain set in & I had to take refuge in a barn to eat my pasty.

Met some curious cattle (we played grandmother’s footsteps through their field) who enjoyed some head scritches.

It was too wet for many photos but it was a very good walk through the rolling green hills & lanes of the South Hams, ending at beautiful Dartmouth on the River Dart. ⛴️ 🚌 🚊 home.

A few more pics from my Okehampton-Chagford #SlowWays walk. I found this lovely boggy meadow. It felt like a secret place, totally surrounded by trees. I’d like to go back & explore more. Lots of devil’s-bit scabious, which seemed to attract the six-spot burnet moth. In the margin of another field was this hogweed bejewelled with red soldier beetles. Also seen (but too rubbish photo) was a roe deer & fawn!

Reviewed #SlowWays Okehampton to Chagford today (with a side quest to Belstone). Had drizzle, driving rain (my boots leaked, despite reproofing ☹️ - having wet feet sucks) then sunshine. Fortunately I was sheltered from much of the rain by some gorgeous green, mossy #holloways. The one in 3rd pic was incredible - a deep, narrow bridleway leading to a ford & stepping stones over the river Teign (one for my top 10).

I had a lovely walk, although a little rainy yesterday, from Reigate to Kenley via Redhill, Godstone, and Caterham.

24km following four SlowWays (https://slowways.org) ways.

Three of the four routes now need only one more review to get verified (snailed).

They're all 4/5 star walks!

“Tenacity” & “type 2 fun”…my Plymstock to Salcombe adventure made #slowways review of the week!

https://stories.slowways.org/review-of-the-week-adventuring-from-plymstock-to-salcombe/

#Walking #hiking

A few more pics from part 2 of #SlowWays Plymstock to Salcombe. Restarting at Bigbury was not ideal - no buses of course (except on a Tuesday 🙄) so getting there this morning was a mini adventure in itself. Three buses (miraculously on time) & a lovely 5.5 mile walk along the Avon Estuary to the ferry. The continuation of the SlowWay was 10 miles through a landscape of rolling green hills & coastal valleys characteristic of the South Hams. A cracking #holloway too.

Starting where I left off last Friday at Bigbury, on the #Slowways route from Plymstock to Salcombe - not missing the ferry today!
#FingerpostFriday

A few more pics of yesterday’s #hike. The intention was to walk a #SlowWays from Plymstock to Salcombe. I managed 19 miles, but having missed the last ferry of the day from Bigbury to Bantham, I’ll have to complete it another day. It was a great #walk - quite the adventure - stunning scenery, lovely paths & even more memorable for the kindness of strangers.
I also have to say that the path cleared through a cliff top barley field was a beauty! And yes, I did hear the Gladiator theme in my head.
