Yorkshire Dales Access Forum

The Yorkshire Dales Access Forum (YDAF) was established by the Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority in October 2002 as a statutory advisory body. Its role is to provide advice on improving access within the National Park. Local and national park authorities outside the Inner London boroughs were required to establish Local Access Forums as a result of the Countryside and Rights of Way Act (CRoW) 2000.
The Forum advises the Authority on providing the new right of Open Access to the countryside and plays an important role in advising the Authority more generally on matters of recreation and access across the 2,000 kilometres of footpaths, bridleways and byways in the National Park.
