Help connect Crook
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 Crook’s Slow Ways.

Latest Updates
Most of this route follows an old railway track but some sections were 'inclines' so are fairly steep. The surface is generally good. It traffic free except for 3 or 4 road crossings....
