Draft
Core Paths Plans
The Land Reform (Scotland) Act 2003 required Councils
to develop a Core Path Plan which would allow the public
reasonable access within a county on a network of core
paths.
The link is a Google Search page (May 2009) where most
of the plans can be accessed in the first few pages
- alternatively type in a particular council on the
search page.
