Access Problem Reporting
Since the introduction of the Land Reform (Scotland) Act 2003, all Access Authorities (local authorities and National Park authorities) are required to have Access Officers, and they have the duty to uphold the rights of the legislation. These are the route for resolution of local access issues within their relevant areas. You can find a list of contacts here. MCofS monitors mountaineering-relevant access problems. This will highlight to us common problems and areas, and guide us at a strategic level in tackling access difficulties through SNH or relevant representative organisation.
Should you experience access issues, please contact the local Access Officer. Please also copy us (hebe@mountaineering-scotland.org.uk) into the correspondence or fill in the reporting form so that we can act upon repeats of the same problem, or problems with a common theme at a national level.
