Sabrina Way
200 miles (322 km), linear. About 77 hours, challenging.
Map not drawn yet. OpenStreetMap has only about 23.9 miles of its 200 miles, so we’ve left the map off rather than show a misleading stub. The length above is the publisher’s. The facts and sources below still stand. See the whole route on the LDWA’s page. Know the route? Its line comes from OpenStreetMap, which anyone can add to: the missing part shows here the next time we refresh from it.
