The Ramblers are leading a project to prevent loss of public footpaths

We've searched all of England and Wales and found over 49,000 miles of paths that could be lost forever, unless we come together to save them.

Our paths are one of our most precious assets, hidden in plain sight, and often taken for granted, they allow everyone to enjoy the countryside, both on our doorstep and across Britain’s iconic landscapes.

With the help of thousands of volunteers we searched all of England and Wales and found over 49,000 miles of paths which could be lost forever. Time is running out, with only five years left to collect the historical, documentary evidence needed to build and submit applications to restore the most important paths for future generations.
