Ann Arbor, Michigan FKT route that brings together some of the favorite trails that run alongside the Huron River - which I have dubbed "The Huron River Gallup". As someone who is exploring FKT routes here in the state, I am eager to find things that are a bit more feasible for a solo adventure where you can start/stop in the same spot as opposed to long straight paths that are one-way. As such, I am hopeful that this will be a scenic, attractive run for local Michigan trail runners (or those visiting from out of town) who want to cover some of the favorite trails in A2.

The West Pennine Way is a circular long distance walk which was devised by the Greenmount Village Community Hiking Group as a complement to the area and as a supplement to the Pennine Way. Passing many local landmarks but arriving there on sometimes unfrequented trails makes for a challenging route both navigationally and physically. It covers the area of the West Pennine Moors of Lancashire to the north of Bolton.

The route begins right in the center of Munich. Start at the Fischbrunnen directly at Marienplatz and from there straight to the Isar.  You run upstream and practically the entire route is along the rivers Isar, Loisach and Partnach up to 5 kilometers before the summit of the Zugspitze.  All rivers connecting to each other.
