Good Practice Guide

Maumturks Walking Club

Somebody owns all land and we use that land with the goodwill of the farmer.
Be friendly and courteous when we meet landowners and local residents
Make no unnecessary noise, especially when passing near houses
Be careful not to damage fences, walls or hedges; these are livestock boundaries and are expensive to repair.
Leave gates as we find them.

Use a map to keep track of where you are and the progress you are making along the line of the way. Mark / tick off the markings on the map as you go.
If in a group, stay together and watch out for each other.
Be aware of traffic, especially if walking on busy road.
Don’t rush, take breaks and most importantly enjoy your self!
