What is
Tread Lightly!
Tread Lightly! is a non-profit organisation promoting the responsible use of motorised vehicles for outdoor recreation. Our goal is to balance the users’ need for adventure with the need to conserve the places where they ride and explore. To support this, we offer a wide range of training courses to promote a responsible outdoor recreation message.

There are an extraordinary number of things to learn about green lanes and off-road recreation on private land, whether from the perspective of a recreational user, a professional, or an authority. Unsurfaced roads in Great Britain have an interesting history; the law surrounding them is arcane and sometimes bizarre and controversial. Our courses will help you solidify your knowledge about 'green laning' and off-road recreation.
