I guess this question could be asked in any forum, but we're looking into Wales for a trip next year.
If planning a completely road-based route or trip, I'd use RiDE routes and BaseCamp - simple and straightforward.
In Ireland there are no legal trails/green lanes, so any we ride we do so without authorisation (but with responsibility and care), and no-one shares routes.
My understanding could be off but as many green lanes are broadly legal in UK, if we want to ride some green lanes in Snowdonia and Brecon Beacons, can I just zoom in on BaseCamp and choose any trails I like (as I would with paved roads)? And then if we come across closed or blocked routes (as I gather can happen), we simply turn around and find another alternative (legit & accessible) trail? How can I tell from BaseCamp what trails are or aren't legit? Or can I only learn that on arrival to a locked gate or No Access sign?
Riding some nice trails & lanes in these areas would be so good, but we want to be 100% legit and compliant with this.
TIA.
