Slow Ways (Bedfordshire)
Slow Ways is our citizen-made national walking network, connecting all of Britain’s towns, cities and national landscapes. It is enjoyed and made by people like you. Use Slow Ways for the everyday and the epic: to discover local walks, create challenges and plan long-distance journeys. We are a not-for-profit initiative created by thousands of citizens. Together we are making it easier to walk from A to B because we believe that if people know they can walk somewhere, they will! Here you’ll find nearly 10,000 walks that have been shared by people across the country, including thousands of reviews with practical advice and friendly guidance to support your adventures. We are a community initiative.

End the month with a walk from Luton to Dunstable, checking the SlowWays 9km route.

This is a walking task - no cycling possible. Meet at Hat Factory and walk the footpaths to Dunstable station, option to return by public transport or to complete the return walk for the full 18kms.

There is a possibility of mud so ensure sensible walking footwear (boots or trainers) and bring suitable coat for the weather (rain/cold etc).

How are you getting there?
