Rights of way
- The 'East Area' Office of the Countryside Council for Wales (CCW) phone
01597-824661 can provide further information.
- The Countryside and Rights of Way Act 2000 (CRoW), which is
available online at the Office of
Public Sector Information, and which is unfortunately often called
the 'Right to Roam' legislation, has given the public access up some
upland areas and areas of unimproved land. The CCW has information on it with online
maps showing areas that are normally available to visit on foot, including
Statuary and permissive access.
- Under the 'Tir Gofal' & 'Tir Cymen' schemes, the
Countryside Council for Wales and some landowners who benefit from the scheme
have agreed on paths across their land, which may be used by walkers, except
at designated times such as the lambing season. These paths are marked with
signs with arrows on gates and posts.
- Public paths and bridleways in the National Park are maintained and signed by the Brecon Beacons National Park
Authority.
