Ah, beware. According to the article, if you live in one of those areas and don't clear the path, then you could end up with a warning and then a fine. Maybe a god-send for hard-up local authorities, but not so for hard-up citizens, nor those who are concerned about the number of investigations and reports that may be made on the individual.
The report does mention legal liability if someone should be hurt on your cleared area, but adds that they would have to prove you behaved maliciously or carelessly. However, if you know people are likely to walk to your door and that there are dangers on that private path, then you are expected to take reasonable steps to ensure the safety of your visitors.
