Good to know
- Routes from Waymarked Trails, which draws the hiking routes mapped on OpenStreetMap (data © OpenStreetMap contributors, ODbL); counted on Oct 19, 2026.
- Only routes someone has mapped as a route on OpenStreetMap are counted. Signposted paths no one has mapped, and walks without waymarks, are not.
- Lengths within 15 km are measured on Waymarked Trails’ simplified lines and take in a route’s branches and variants; a path two routes share counts for each. A route’s length in all follows its main line along the mapped ways, and those marked “about” come from the simplified lines.
