Description

This is just the last 100K+ of the Via de la Plata route of the Camino de Santiago, the minimum distance to be recognised with a distance certificate by the pilgrim's office. A "pilgrim's passport" can be stamped along the way to provide a souvenir, and to show at the office. Unlike the more popular St James route, it is conveniently possible as a 1-day adventure because a high-speed train links the two cities.

Sentier des Poetes (QC, Canada)

Description

This is an out-and-back trail course: from Anse Saint-Jean marina to Petit Saguenay pier and back.

Starting from Anse Saint-Jean Marina, half a mile on pavement and then a large trail. Then about 5.5 miles on a forest technical single track (mostly roots and some rocks). One mile of steep ascent to a point of view of the Saguenay fjord then rolling for about 2 miles to a lake. Then a descent to another lake, followed by a moderately steep ascent. The descent to Petit Saguenay pier is quite steep and technical. Return to the starting point by the same trail.

The point to point trail is an entirely paved bike path/rail trail that is 27.5 miles in length and is almost entirely flat, with about 700’ of elevation over the 27.5 miles. The largest “hills” are the over passes heading over the major roads. I see no advantage to starting on either end, so I propose there is only one FKT for the route.
