Greenlane google style map

[AlexD333]

I found this a year or so ago, and promised i would keep it until the time arised that I would get another 4x4

It may be a well known map I'm not sure but certainly a handy tool *drools*

Use it as you will, always check the lanes are still active with no bans ect :augie

Looks good for finding them in the first place. I can't work out what the different colours and line type mean. I saw red, amber, green and green dotted. Might be a rating.

sent from my phone, sorry for any typo's.

There are a few out my way, I have driven the one from Christmas common to Pishill in my van, it has some good ruts if you want to get into that stuff of more level ground if not. The Ridgeway is closed off to vehicles now for most of it's length, although there are some parts still open and again, hard and easy parts.
Not sure about the stuff around Nettlebed, I think they are still open though

that map has been around for a while, iirc its out of date and the lanes that are on there are suspicious for use

this is a much better map http://wtp2.appspot.com/wheresthepath.htm

Check the "about" tab on the top. It explains the colours

This map looks wicked. I have a question though, how do you use the thing? Looks like i need a degree to operate it. How can I find greenlanes in lamens terms? :nenau

 

[R1cho]

green lanes are usually marked with a +++++ type thing

Top knotch sir, thank you, are these maps more up to date do you think?

 

[Sweety]

That map is sadly very out of date as it lists a byway near me that has been unpassable in a motor for easy 8 years & think it's now been reclassed as a bridleway:augie But I know quite a few in the NE of Northumberland if anyone needs the info:thumb2

If you do switch to paper maps bare in mind that the key above won't be the same as the Byways change from green to pink

that all depends on which map you use
