Self-guided Walks
Want to walk on a trail selected by other walkers for its walkability? There are over 2000 self-guided walking routes around the world established by the local volkssport clubs, including over 1500 in the US and Canada. These are open to the public - you register at the start point, take a map and directions and enjoy a 10 kilometer walk. These are called Year-Round Walks or Permanent Walks.
