Joining GLASS will help keep the lanes open for us and will give you full access (as opposed to restricted access) to Trailwise which is invaluable for find lanes and the status of them.
Alternatively most local councils provide interactive maps on the web. If you follow the code of conduct then there is no mandatory need to join GLASS or other club - it just makes it easier to find like minded people that share the same interest.
I do go out solo sometimes but it's always on lanes I have done before in groups - and only the ones that I know there is very little chance of getting stuck - going with at least one other vehicle helps in the case of getting stuck / breakdown.....bear in mind AA / RAC etc won't come and recover you on a greenlane....

Agree with Darren ^^^^^^^^^^^^ It is well worth joining GLASS, the Green Lane Association.
You can use trailwise, they have a nice magazine, and most importantly your membership subs will go towards fighting lane closures and new legislation which could put a stop to laning altogether.
There are many threads on the forum about finding lanes, how to follow code of conduct, etc.

Yeh, and you tend to spend less time fixing them and more time driving them as a result....

I mentioned green laning to my sister who has a RAV 4, if she goes with should l take recovery equipment with me.
Not if you pick your lanes carefully and recce ahead on foot if in doubt. A few lanes are challenging, many can be driven in a 2wd car. Dryish conditions are best, both from a point of view of making progress, and of not damaging the ground.
