This document contains guidance from the Cairngorms National Park Authority (Park Authority) about planning permission and 'permitted development' rights for private ways (tracks) on agricultural and forestry land, updated in September 2022. The document explains that while these types of private ways don't usually need planning permission, the Park Authority needs to be told about any plans to build or change them before work starts. The Park Authority will then decide if it needs to approve the plans. The document also highlights the importance of getting in touch with the local authority to discuss proposals beforehand, as rules can be complicated, and it outlines the process for 'prior notification' and the information that must be included in an application, as well as signposting what to do if your plans might affect certain protected areas.
