Rating The Trails
Every trail (or walking course) if different. To help determine the difficulty of the walk, trails are evaluated by a five point rating system.
Level 5: a very difficult walk with many steep hills, & very rough terrain.
Level 4: a difficult walk, portions with steep hills and rough terrain
Level 3: a moderate walk with more hills (than Level 2) and uneven terrain
Level 2: a relatively easy walk with short or not as steep hills and (perhaps) some uneven terrain
Level 1: an easy walk on pavement or sidewalks with no significant hills
Some clubs will use “+” and “-“ to further define the difficulty of the trail or course using (e.g.) a 1+ to indicate that it is between a 1 and 2 rating. |
