A Five Star Slow Way Walk
4 GoodGymers made their way to help their local community in Birmingham.

A group of us decided to review a Slow Way from Birmingham out to Longbridge, a lovely 10 mile walk along mostly familiar routes at what Komoot classed as an "athletic" pace.
Tom and Eve set off from the city centre and headed through China Town and across to Cannon Hill park, from there we picked up the Rea Valley route following the river until we reached Stirchley to pick up Laura (and some snacks!). We then got onto the canal and headed all the way to Longbridge with Morwenna joining us for the last section and some well earned refreshments at the far end. The 15 minute train back was a lot less scenic!
Happy to give the Slow Way route and the company five stars. Full review of the route here: https://beta.slowways.org/Route/Lonbir/8973/#reviews
