IMPORTANT NOTE: none of these brown trails are marked or even visibly trodden, they have been transferred from a GPS carried by someone walking those hikes. Most have very steep sections and should be attempted only if you have a good sense of orientation, have experience in cross-country hiking and are fit and healthy. Making these hikes is at your own risk.
Please text us when you start, telling us which hike you will attempt and how far you want to walk, and then text again when you are safely back. Allow an hour for each 1-3 km distance, depending on the steepness (see height data below)!!!
