We updated our brand and name in June 2025 to Walking Scotland. We’re still working to update everything with our new branding. This means you might spot our previous, Paths for All, branding in places, and some links in downloads might not work as they should.
If you have any problems, let us know and we’ll help as best we can. You can also sign up to our newsletter to be the first to know when we publish updated and new resources and guides.
