This week we’re traveling to the thin air and high alpine peaks of Colorado for a very special episode of the FKT Podcast. Last summer, not one, not two, but four FKTs went down on the Colorado Trail within weeks of each other.

Dingle Way
The Dingle peninsula, the northernmost of County Kerry's peninsulas, stretches nearly 50 kilometres into the Atlantic, and is 21 kilometres wide at its broadest. It is a dramatic and varied landscape of coastal plains, sandy beaches, mountains and lakes. The Dingle Way is a circular route beginning and ending in the town of Tralee that takes in all of these wonderments along the route. Leaving Tralee the route climbs onto the flanks of the Slieve Mish and contours westwards before crossing the peninsula to the scenic Inch beach on Dingle Bay.
GR 131 Lanzarote (Spain)
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.

TableTop Track
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....
