About these routes . .

The routes above contain greenlanes that are all relatively easy, on the whole they should not damage your vehicle and you should not (hopefully) be hassled by landowners, but more importantly they should be sustainable.

Any route marked * is not suitable for 4x4's for its full length (they may be too narrow for instance - reccy on foot first but do not try to force large vehicles down narrow tracks).

** may be TRO'd ( traffic regulation order - no vehicles allowed ! ) in parts, other lanes could also be subject to recent TRO's - look out for the signs and abide by them.
*** These are downloadable text (.txt) files in GPS Utility (GPSU) format (www.gpsu.co.uk), open into GPSU (gives Waypoint co-ords - follow them numerically ie: W1, W2, W3 .. etc) to create a route.
Note: Map co-ords can be extracted from the GPSU files by opening into Windows Notepad.
Also: The status for all lanes are liable to change, contact the local greenlaning club/county council for the latest news.
