What
are Millennium Miles?
- accessible
countryside paths for disabled people
Millennium
Miles can be found all across the UK. They are paths and trails
that meet the BT Countryside for All standards so that
- people
with disabilities can choose places to visit in the countryside
where they know they will be able to gain access;
- countryside
managers and landowners can promote the good work that they have
done in making the countryside more accessible.

Information
packs to enable you to register Millennium Miles are available by
e-mailing, telephoning or writing to the Fieldfare
Trust.
The
BT Millennium Miles project ran between 2000 and 2002 with support
from BT, the Countryside Agency, Scottish Natural Heritage, the
Countryside Council for Wales and the Environment and Heritage Service
in Northern Ireland.
Fieldfare
has continued independently to register Millennium Miles and collate
information on accessible countryside venues in order to make this
information available to disabled people.
The registration of the paths means they should be accessible, but
please note that inclusion in this website does not constitute endorsement
or guarantee by the Fieldfare Trust.
