Public Rights of Way and COVID-19


All public footpaths, bridleways and byways remain open and available for public use. Please see Public Rights of Way page for information on Cornwall's public rights of way.

Legal restrictions relating to Covid-19 have ended but it is still worth remembering some of the basic guidance when out and about in order to keep yourself and others as safe as possible:

  • If you can, try to keep a respectful distance from people
  • Try and remember to wash your hands or sanitise after touching any shared surfaces, such as stiles or gates. This will not only protect you from Covid but also bugs such as E. coli.
  • Keep dogs on a lead around livestock and away from other people and dogs
  • Leave gates as you find them

If you see a safety issue please report it by using either the email address or phone number on this page.
