OpenLongTrails recognizes that what does and does not qualify as a "long trail" is open to interpretation. OpenLongTrails currently considers the following characteristics as a flexible guide:
The trail...
- ...is at least 80 kilometers (50 miles) long.
- ...involves minimal road walks.
- ...is mostly completed.
- ...is mostly in wild areas with natural earth for trail surface.
- ...is primarily a hiking trail and is designed for foot traffic.
- ...can be completed without substantial mountaineering skills or pack rafting.
- ...is not under regulations that require hiking with guides.
See the List of Other Noteworthy Trails for trails that do not meet all of the OpenLongTrails Long Trails Criteria but remain of interest to the long distance nature trails community.
See the List of Trails to Review for trails that have yet to be evaluated to determine whether they fit the OpenLongTrails Long Trails Criteria.
