    Joao he’s not on about wandering through your front room or trashing your property on his way through. Scu is talking about stupid archaic laws meaning that hoards of walkers can walk through a piece of land on a ROW but cyclists can’t.

    Daft situation.

    Found this on wikipedia from sweden this is this system we should have. Unlike the system we currently have where peoples right to roam is constantly infringed.

    In Sweden allemansrätten (lit. “the everyman’s right”) is a freedom granted by the Constitution of Sweden. Since 1994 the Instrument of Government says that notwithstanding the right to own property “everyone shall have access to nature in accordance with allemansrätten

    Allemansrätten gives a person the right to access, walk, cycle, ride, ski, and camp on any land—with the exception of private gardens, the immediate vicinity of a dwelling house and land under cultivation. Restrictions apply for nature reserves and other protected areas. It also gives the right to pick wild flowers, mushrooms and berries (provided one knows they are not legally protected), but not to hunt in any way. Swimming in any lake and putting an unpowered boat on any water is permitted unless explicitly forbidden. Visiting beaches and walking by a shoreline is permitted, providing it is not a part of a garden or within the immediate vicinity of a residence (legally defined as the hemfridszon). According to legal practice this is between 100 to 300 metres from a dwelling house.[9] To better protect access to water and the right to walk along beaches, it is since 1975 generally not permitted to build a new house near (generally 100 m) from a beach and/or shoreline
