Kerry Way — no walking permit

Official portal kerryway.ie. This record does not list a walking permit. Practical season March–October; the Way is year-round walkable. Stay on the waymarked line; this desk does not invent a camping statute for Kerry.kerryway.ie · 2026-08-24

Hadrian's Wall Path — stay on the Path

No walking permit. The Wall is a scheduled monument / UNESCO World Heritage Site — stay on the Path. Official advice prefers May–October to reduce erosion. The Summer Passport is a keepsake, not a ticket.nationaltrail.co.uk · 2026-08-24

West Highland Way — access code, not a fee

Walking needs no permit under the Scottish Outdoor Access Code.outdooraccess-scotland.scot · 2026-08-20

Wild camping inside Loch Lomond & The Trossachs Camping Management Zones requires a camping permit from 1 March to 30 September. That is not a West Highland Way walking fee.lochlomond-trossachs.org · 2026-08-20
