Find out where the public rights of way are in Leeds, where access rights (right to roam) apply, and how we are improving the public rights of way network.

Within Leeds there are 859km of rights of way, 650km of footpaths, 199km of bridleways and 11km of byways recorded on the Definitive Map. These ways lead through varied and changing landscapes, from urban areas to glorious countryside.
