Facets
Groupings of records we already hold. Membership is earned from the catalog, not padded.
Access
Car-free long-distance hikes
Records whose sourced trailheads or Getting-there legs can be reached without a private car (yes or seasonal). Membership is computed from this catalog — not a transit timetable.
Terrain
Scrambles & exposed alpine ground
Records whose standard itinerary is scramble, ferrata, or T4+ ground on this catalog. Optional via ferrata finishes are not upgraded into membership.
Season
Shoulder-season treks
Records whose cited walking window includes spring or autumn months — not a weather forecast, and not the high-summer Alps-only set.
Shape
Multi-day loop treks
Records stored as a loop on this catalog. A loop flag is the route type, not a ranking.
Elevation
Low-altitude treks
Records whose high-point DataPoint is under 1,500 m. That is the stored high, not a climate claim.
Lodging
High-infrastructure treks
Hut, refuge, Great Walk, Overland, teahouse, or village-lodging corridors we actually hold — including Annapurna Circuit. Not a luxury ranking.
