Description

It will soon be 100 years since the current districts of Solingen came together to form a large city and one brand, Solingen, city of blades. Almost as old is the Klingenpfad trail, which was established around that time by the Sauerländische Gebirgsverein. It leads around Solingen and is almost 70 kilometres long in total. The average hiking time for the whole route is around 20 hours so it’s worth dividing it into three stages. The regular starting point of the hike is Solingen Gräfrath, but since its a round trip you may start anywhere on the track.

**The Isle of Mull Skyline: A Mountainous Ultra-Marathon Route by Caleb Andrew Nonhebel**

The Isle of Mull Skyline, created by myself, Caleb Andrew Nonhebel, is an ultra-marathon distance route stretching from the east coast to the west coast of Mull. This challenging 50km route encompasses every classified peak (Munro, Corbett, Grahams) on the island, making it one of the most demanding courses in existence. The route's difficulty arises from its nearly pathless terrain, rough Scottish ground, and relentless climbs, often starting from sea level.
