    Long distance routes with minimal walking on paved roads/paths

    Thanks Elaine. I was drawn to the Via Francigena, but I developed the impression that there is a lot of asphalt walking and following busy roads. Perhaps I could do a similar route via a combination of GR and E-paths and keep to the 'off road' stuff. Which GR routes are you familiar with and...

    Hello there, I'm looking for my next long distance walk and hoped to dip into the collective knowledge of this forum. I'm looking for a route within Europe (including the UK) which has a low proportion of walking on paved roads/paths. I find that tarmac/asphalt etc doesn't agree with my...
