Happy to contribute to the snailing of TruPro3! After some exploration a safer route was found. This provides an important link which means we now have continuous snailed routes from the Lizard to Lostwithiel! Thanks to those walking tricky Cornish paths. @SlowWaysUK #slowways
Treated myself to a @SlowWaysUK walk today in the South Downs, while travelling between Sussex and Cornwall. Happy to say I gave PetLip1 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. Mine is the 3rd review, but no snail yet as a previous reviewer raised an issue with safety (I'm not convinced). #slowways
Walked ProMev1 (⭐️⭐️⭐️) and StaMev1(⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️) on a lovely winters day today in Cornwall. Both good enough to be added to the #slowways network, and both should be snailed, given existing reviews and the fact 3 of us completed them today! @SlowWaysUK
I was happy to pioneer the @SlowWaysUK route from Indian Queens to Probus in Cornwall today. It was an enjoyable walk, with one major amendment required (uploaded new route). Two of us did this, so looking for one more person to snail it!

Tried out HayHel1 yesterday down here in Cornwall. Unfortunately an all too familiar situation once out in the sticks with some poorly maintained/non-existent footpaths. The problem will affect HayHel2 as well - both will be getting 1⭐️.Time for a new route - onwards! #slowways
Tried out PenSti2 from Penzance from St Ives on Saturday. Sadly not a viable route given some non-existent footpaths around Nancledra and Trink. PenSti3 taking in more of St Michael's Way (a safe bet) submitted and ready to try! #slowways
Yesterday I tried RedTru2, starting in Redruth. Pleased to say that I think it should be part of the network, and gets a 3 star rating from me. Some lovely parts through Cornwall's mining landscape, but a tricky bridleway and a fair bit of road walking too @SlowWaysUK #slowways
Yesterday I walked another 3 #Slowways in Cornwall. My first time doing a triangle, starting and ending in St Blazey. Happy to report that all 3 were generally great routes and only a couple of rogue footpaths require amendments. @SlowWaysUK
BugLos (Bugle to Lostwithiel) - although this route was mainly on roads, they were interesting with views of standing stones, views encompassing "clay country" and woodland valleys full of birdsong. Again the first review for this route - 4 stars.
Yesterday I walked 3 consecutive unreviewed #Slowways in Cornwall. TruPro, ProSta and StaStb (in reverse) were interesting, varied and most importantly great routes with only a few minor amendments required. Reviews will be up on the site soon. Legs tired today! @SlowWaysUK
Walked my first #SlowWays route at the weekend. Falmouth to Helston. Two towns I've driven and cycled between many times, but walking uncovered some new, delightful parts of the Cornish countryside. A few issues with signs, but overall a decent route!
Drill-down forms in #qgis are going to be very useful for an upcoming project. Thanks to @northroadgeo for implementing them, @lutraconsulting for providing a useful example dataset, @burdGIS for a helpful youtube video and "MrXsquared" for their SE post - gis.stackexchange.com/questi…
