Great Divide Trail (GDT)

The wild heart of the Rockies. Stretching over 1,100km from Waterton Lakes National Park to Kakwa Provincial Park, the Great Divide Trail (GDT) is a loosely connected series of trails, old forestry roads, and off-trail cross-country segments. It follows the Continental Divide, crossing between Alberta and British Columbia dozens of times. Unlike the well-manicured PCT or AT, the GDT is famous for its 'trail-less' sections where hikers must navigate by line-of-sight and topographical markers. It traverses some of the most spectacular and remote regions in the Canadian Rockies, through territory where bears and wolves are far more common than humans.

The Larapinta Trail is a 223km point-to-point long-distance track in the Northern Territory, Australia. Spanning from the Alice Springs Telegraph Station to the summit of Mount Sonder, the route traverses the spine of the West MacDonnell Ranges (Tjoritja). The landscape is defined by Proterozoic-era quartzite ridges, narrow gorge systems, and ephemeral river beds. The trail possesses deep cultural significance to the Arrernte people and offers exposure to one of the world's oldest geological landscapes.
