Too many people are cut off from nature because local paths are missing, blocked or unusable.
It's no accident. It's down to years of political & financial neglect.
We’re fighting back with our #AccessDenied campaign & we need your help!

Big thanks to ministers, MSPs, MPs, councillors, candidates and members at #SNP25 for filling up our map of favourite walks. From mountain top to coast, woodland and river; from city to country, the map shows just how rich our walking opportunities are!
Cabinet Secretary for Housing @MairiMcAllan highlighted the Southern Upland Way as one her favourite paths at #SNP25 and shared views on the importance of getting outside for recreation as a community benefit as well as for health and wellbeing.
Depute first minister @_KateForbes has probably the best constituency in Scotland for mountains and walks and highlighted Glen Affric as a particularly favourite place to walk in nature #SNP25

The cabinet secretary for finance @ShonaRobison popped by during a busy time at #SNP25. In our manifesto for 2026 we argue that a tiny investment in a Scottish Paths Fund could go a long way. Ramblers.org.uk/scotmanifest…

Great to speak to Jenni Minto, minister for public health and women’s health about the clear relationship between outdoor recreation and physical and mental health at #SNP25

Our final visitor of day 2 of #SNP25 is @S_A_Somerville the Cabinet Secretary for Social Justice. Making outdoor access an everyday reality for everyone is a top priority for us and in our shared proposals for the 2026 election. See ramblers.org.uk/scotmanifest…
Government minister @MareeToddMSP has been a longstanding supporter of the daily mile and the health benefits of outdoor recreation and spoke to us powerfully at #SNP25 on the emotional pull of the outdoors for people.
Thanks to Cabinet Secretary for Climate Action and Energy Gillian Martin for visiting our stand at #SNP25 and recognising the value of paths into nature.
Great to chat to Cabinet Secretary for Rural Affairs, Land Reform & Islands @MairiGougeon at #SNP25 this morning and share views on the huge benefits of being active in outdoor spaces.

A stellar day above Glen Lyon today, with sublime views. However, the North Chesthill estate does everything it can to dissuade/scare walkers from even leaving the car park.
Here’s what I found today.

Our policy manager Gavin loved bumping into Nick @LifeAfloat Ray in Kintail at the weekend.
Nick's on the last leg of a 1,000-mile (!) walk to the most southerly, easterly, westerly & northerly points of mainland Scotland. Good luck, Nick!👏
