create a network of walking routes that connect all of Great
Britain's towns and cities as well as thousands of villages and
every national park. People can use the routes to walk between
neighbouring places or combine routes to travel over longer
distances. Slow Ways was kick-started during the first lockdown
with hundreds of volunteers suggesting thousands of routes. There
are now over 8,000 routes in the network that cover over 120,000km.
Using the Slow Ways website, people are now walking the routes to
make sure they are good enough to be in the network. Enough work
has now been done to publish our first printed map of the network
at a scale that is perfect for imagining, planning and recording
journeys.
