GR 131 Lanzarote (Spain)

Submitted by hhavery on Tue, 01/16/2024 - 03:37am
Description

The full GR131 starts on the North coast of Lanzarote at Orzola and finishes about 347 miles away on El Heirro after traversing all of the Canary islands. This part route will cover the first section from Orzola on the North coast of Lanzarote to Playa Blanca on the South coast. Most of the route will follow quiet roads, dirt roads and tracks with the occasional rugged narrow path. Lanzarote has many volcanic cones across the island and the route passes many of them but never actually summits any of them, staying low on their slopes.

Description

The TableTop track is located within the Litchfield National park approx 1.5 hours south from the capital of the Northern Territory, Darwin. The track is accessed by one of several link walks, which act as possible locations/access for support (if needed) as well as points to depart the track if any emergency arises.  It is a highly popular hiking trail to the greater Darwin region, due to the ease of access and the closest multi day route to Darwin.   The route can be at times challenging with the varying terrain and at some points the trail seems to be lost in the stones.... 

Spring Creek Greenway Trail

Submitted by Kelly Swanson on Mon, 01/15/2024 - 04:29pm
Description

This is a paved 15.9 mile trail along Spring Creek that is a good out & back for almost 32 miles.  One way elevation gain is 360 feet, so double that as well if doing out & back. The trail connects several parks including Denise Johnson, Jesse Jones and John Pundt.  The trail has beautiful views of the creek and forested areas.  Trail signs and markers are helpful and educational.

Navajo Long Walk Route

Description

This Route is of great importance to my Navajo Tribe. This route, much like the Trail of Tears for the Cherokee tribe, carries a lot of weight and teaching. The government wanted to clear out the Navajo from their land, so in the coldest of winters they began this 400+ Mile journey. Many of my ancestors were lost during this route. They were forced to take on this journey because they were slaves, starved, and their villages burned. There was nothing left for them, not even hope until Chief Manuelito was able to negotiate our reservation of what we have today.
