    Last updated: 02/10/2025 (more than a year ago)

    Founded in 1845, ScotWays (The Scottish Rights of Way and Access Society) is the independent charity which upholds and promotes public access rights in Scotland. They are widely recognised as experts in the law and practice of access and advice on access problems, provide information and training and maintain a vast database about routes in Scotland. You can see their recognisable green and white signs on routes across Scotland.
    They are home to Heritage Paths Project, a unique archive of Scotland's old paths and roads. They record hundreds of old routes, from Roman Roads to Pilgrim Paths. Explore their website and find out more about public access to the outdoors in Scotland, and of course the best thing you can do is join and become a member.
