Bridleways

Bridleways are designated paths specifically intended for horse riding, often also allowing walking and cycling, but not motorized vehicles. They are part of public rights of way, providing safe routes through the countryside for equestrians and other non-motorized users. Bridleways are marked on maps and are maintained for the enjoyment and practical use of those on horseback or traveling non-motorized means. They help connect different areas of open land, farms, and villages, supporting outdoor recreation and agriculture while maintaining access and safety for all users.
