Tomorrow, all being well, I shall be #routemaking along a number of potential off-road routes between #Ashbourne and #Ilam in #Derbyshire to see which one I prefer to include as the best walking path for my #GrandTourOfDerbyshire. (Derbyshire-ish - I will wander into neighbouring counties to pick up the good bits whenever I'm near)
And yes, I know #SlowWays are "already doing this", but they're not. SlowWays goes from #town centre to town centre.My routes go along the spaces between towns, and avoid going through towns as much as possible, creating unique (or rediscovering #historic) #greenways that cross the #British #countryside linking places of interest to me without relying on road or town networks.
It's an interesting exercise, and it took me a while to get my head around it. We tend to think in terms of town to town when travelling, but there's no need when #walking.

#Slowways from Craven Arms to Knighton - part of my Heart of Wales challenge.
Grey day but lovely rolling hills through Shropshire. The last big hill into Knighton was tough. Will give it a ⭐⭐⭐⭐ review.
Still looking like March to complete Heart of Wales #Slowways. Will probably save the Gower part to the lovely warm weather in March.
Wonderful #Slowways today from Bluith Wales to "Llandod" (Landrindod Wells). Ground hard but not too icy a few inches of snow and not much wind. Givin it a review of 4 stars.

Just had the nod on a new work project for one of our National Park customers to enable their rangers to order and manage the repair and replacement of PROW fingerposts via a mobile app.
Enjoying the synchronicity with #FingerpostFriday
Part of me is wondering whether I can give a home to some of the old ones though...

Of all the #Slowways I have done this was definitely my favourite - Ystradfellte to Glyn-Neath.
Beautiful woodlands in a steep valley with lots of waterfalls.
First #slowWays walk, #kettering to #Wellingborough , not bike friendly but great walk. Legs tired.

Lovely wild camp spot below Fan Fawr between Nant-Ddu and Sennybridge.
Meant to stay awake and do some astrophotography - but just fell straight to sleep because of the sound of the stream.

Another #SlowWays walk today. Filling the last gap from Shirebrook to Dronfield via Bolsover and Chesterfield to reconnect the northern line with the rest of my walked routes.
