Update from Ian

I found the information in Phototrails very useful. It took me a little while to find how how best to use the site and get the information I needed but it was worth the effort.

Plea for Exmoor

I’m very interested in Phototrails but see that you have nothing for the south west of England. Can I put in a plea for some trails in Exmoor or Somerset.

Phototrails for Service Providers

Phototrails are a great way for service providers to promote access to their countryside to visitors of all abilities. In addition, joining the network of Phototrails is a great way to provide your service to people with disabilities. Having your trails hosted on the website will not only provide valuable information for anyone wanting to make choices and decisions about where they go in the countryside, it will also help you meet your duties and responsibilities towards people with disabilities.

Starting with just one Phototrail from the network you manage could help you understand more about accessibility in the countryside and the way you can help everyone enjoy it. Adding Phototrails can help you understand and manage your access network and, allow visitors of all abilities to have choices about where they go to enjoy the countryside.

If you would like to see your walks and trails available on Phototrails then please contact Fieldfare to learn more about the options we have to make that process an easy, efficient and manageable one.
