The Appalachian High Route is a ~ 330 mile loop that combines the Appalachian Trail, Mountains-to-Sea Trail, and Black Mountain Trail using the newly established "Burnsville Connector" as a connector. The route also provides access to nearly all the 6000+ peaks in the Appalachians. 

The regional route 24 "Thurweg" follows follows the Thur almost from the source on Mount Säntis, to Rüdlingen where the River flows into the Rhine. This FKT is done in either direction, starting at the cable car mountain station Gamplüt (Wildhaus) and finishing in Rüdlingen at the Trailhead, or reverse. The vertical gain is about 1850 meter and the loss is 2900 meter.
