Codes of conduct
There are two main codes of conducts to follow when you are visiting the North Pennines AONB and European Geopark: the countryside code and the moorland visitor’s code.
Countryside code
Please follow the countryside code when you are out and about in the North Pennines to ensure that you get the best out of your visit and to make sure that the countryside is protected for future generations to enjoy:
- Be safe – plan ahead and follow any signs
- Leave gates and property as you find them
- Protect plants and animals, and take your litter home
- Keep dogs under close control
- Consider other people
Moorland visitor’s code
The moorland visitor’s code which shares the key messages of the countryside code, was produced by the Moorland Access Advisory Group.
Birdwatching
If you are a birdwatcher be sure to follow the birdwatcher’s code of conduct and the black grouse watching code as well.
