The Consultant looking into the routes for the Core Path 43 has almost completed their work. Currently, 10 routes have been identified and work has begun to narrow this down in preparation for public consultation which will start in the next couple of weeks.

KCC have passed on the views and concerns expressed to them so that they can be considered in the route selection process.

Consultation ends on February 04 at 5:00 pm

Please let KCC know what you think

Aberdeen City Council is working towards making access to the outdoors more than just a ‘walk in the park’. In addition to the right of responsible access (see the Scottish Outdoor Access Code ) and the local path networks that already exist, we are developing a basic network of ‘core paths’. The ‘core paths’ network must cater for all abilities and types of users (e.g. walkers, cyclists, horse-riders, canoeists) but not every core path has to be useable by all. Core paths can be many types of path, ranging from natural ground to high specification constructed paths. They could also help to manage access in environmentally sensitive areas and assist land management.
