Where to Ride Bridleways and Ridden PathsThe availability of bridleways and off road riding varies tremendously over the county.
Ordnance Survey Maps show all definitive bridleways and byways (and footpaths).However there are also many other ridden tracks and paths shown. However for many there is nothing to show there legal status. Many of these are ridden and there may be unrecorded bridleway rights on many of these including some definite footpaths.
Our new Online Interactive Riding Maps show all the paths in Cornwall we believe are ridden as well as the definitive bridleways.
You may also report problems directly from the riding maps! Our riding maps give path information and photos where available.
Trails - Cornwall is well endowed with 'multiuse' trails. These are essentially 'posh' bridleways aimed at cyclists as well as riders and walkers:-
