The route begins on the north end of the wilderness range near highway 2 and the Kootenai River.  We used the Grambauer Mountain Trail.  The route ends at the southern terminus of the wilderness range at Swamp Creek Trailhead.  We did our best to follow the backbone of the range.  We dipped out of the wilderness at Devils Club TH to both pick up supplies and alleviate difficult route finding between the “pinnacle peaks” and Bald Eagle Peak.

Vogelbräu is an institution for beer lovers in Karlsruhe and its surroundings, and as there are three Vogel brew pubs – one in Karlsruhe, one in Ettlingen and one in Durlach –, they’ve devised a fun way to visit them all: the Tour de Vogel (https://www.vogelbraeu.de/tour-de-vogel.html). On this tour, you visit all three Vogel brew pubs, have a drink (optional!) at each and have the waiters confirm it. You then get your third drink on the house.

Hartpury Parish Council’s new was opened on Sunday 5 June 2022. The 4.75-mile circular walking route extends over beautiful scenery and provides breath-taking views in all directions from a range of vantage points. They describe the walk in an anti-clockwise direction and that is the direction this was run in.
