The Supreme Administrative Court dismissed the applicant's appeal against a decision to reject a general plan amendment. The applicant argued that unmarked hiking trails on the legally binding plan violated the Recreation Law's requirements for trail planning. The court held that while the trails were marked, the lack of specific directional signs did not automatically render the plan invalid under the relevant statutes.

[SV]

På plankartan till en generalplan med rättsverkningar fanns friluftsleder markerade. Anteckningarna över friluftslederna var inte angivna som riktgivande. Med beaktande av 13 § i lagen om friluftsliv skulle anteckningarna också uppfylla de krav som ställs på planer för friluftsleder i lagen om friluftsliv.
