Surveys
We are working to build-up a picture of what routes look like. To do that we are asking volunteers to survey routes so that we can communicate features, obstacles and challenges that may make a route desirable or not.
Slow Ways surveyors are asked to complete some basic online training, but they are not vetted. If you are dependent on the survey information being correct in order to complete a route, we recommend that you think critically about the information provided. You may also wish to wait until more than one survey has been completed.
Help people know more about this route by volunteering to submit a survey.

17 May 2023A simple accessibly route from South Ken tube to Paddington station. There aren't any sign posts in the Kensington Gardens (which would be a nice addition) but if you head through the park and head diagonally towards Lancaster Gate it's pretty straight forward.

06 Jul 2022Lovely walk between Kensington and Paddington through Kensington Gardens. The streets at either end are busy and cluttered, but the central section is green and organised.
Good Slow Ways route - easy to follow, direct abd and pleasant. Benches in the park.

07 May 2022I walked this route from Paddington to Kensington. It's an ideal Slow Ways route, and I wouldn't improve it in any way. It's direct, safe, accessible, and gorgeous. Hyde Park is lovely, of course, and I love how the route skirts to the side of Kensington Palace. It introduces some really cool views along the way.
I've only dinged a star because the last bit along Kensington High Street is longer than my patience for the traffic-soaked mess that is Kensington High Street can take. Overall, though, this is a great route, and one I definitely recommend.

10 Sep 2021A direct route that through Kensington Gardens.
Look for the sociable parakeets as the route passes The Long Water (the tail of the Serpentine).
