Great day out exploring #Dartmoor for the #SlowWays #NationalParksTrail! Decided to go the slower way around to play with possibilities.. so finished in #Princetown. Getting buses and trains back to #Exeter might take just as long.. let's see! 🤞 #Chagford #Devon

I was delighted to have a chunk taken out of my arm by a fly 🪰 earlier. Anyone else been out and about and feeling like there are more insects flying around this year than last year?

What makes you choose one path over another? What extra layers of path information would help people go further & enjoy themselves more? Which local/national organisations would you trust to create routes that matched your interests and needs? crowdfunder.co.uk/p/slowways #SlowWays

We've an audacious vision to create a national walk, run, wheel, cycle, ride network. We can only pull it off if LOTS of people get involved. Will you help us break out of our X bubble 🤖 so we can reach more people? Please give a click and share! crowdfunder.co.uk/p/slowways ❤️

Cyclists! People across GB have worked with us at Slow Ways to develop this walking network. Would you like something similar for cycling? And for local groups to be able to create their own local networks too? crowdfunder.co.uk/p/slowways #SlowWays 🐌💫

The 100% doable #SlowWays dream.. Imagine arriving somewhere you’ve not been before and being able to do a quick search to find a great local walking or wheeling route. ✅ 3 miles ✅ Circular ✅ No wet feet ✅ Good for off-road pushchairs ✅ Great for views, wildlife, history,
