Core Paths can be Rights of Way, Council managed routes, new paths or any other route that provides reasonable countryside access.
The majority are off-road, though some may be pavements or reached by quiet roads. These paths vary in type and quality.
Natural grassy swards, trodden paths or high-specification constructed paths - a choice that satisfies needs for all users and all abilities.
The wider path network displays all Council known countryside paths.
