Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Core Paths Plan?
The Land Reform (Scotland) Act 2003 establishes statutory Access Rights over much of Scotland's land. However it is recognised that most people who are looking for Countryside Access will want to use recognised paths. To provide for this Angus Council is required to prepare a Core Paths Plan for the council area (but excluding the area of the Cairngorms National Park). The plan should identify a basic framework of paths throughout the council area.
How were Core Paths chosen?
The paths in the draft Core Paths Plan have been identified following a lengthy consultation and selection process. For more information, please view the draft Plan on the Core Paths Plan page of the council website.
