Stored distance is 6.61 km. The chart axis follows the DEM sample (8.16 km), not the published line length.

Ingested from OpenStreetMap relation 15571032 (ODbL). The mapped line is that geometry. Distance, ascent, descent, and high/low points are the evidence-sheet figures (adjudicated 2026-09-21). Name is the OSM relation name (Mahuli Fort); no tag=* shield. Member ways are untagged for sac_scale; SAC stays ungraded.

OSM 2D length is 6.61 km (OSM line, ODbL, relation 15571032, lastVerified 2026-09-21). Provisional — OSM line, no cited itinerary. Out-and-back: the published figure is the one-way 6.61 km; round-trip is about 13.22 km in prose only. The published figure is the evidence-sheet 6.61 km for relation 15571032.

High 811 m is Copernicus GLO-30 (lastVerified 2026-09-21), verified on the walked OSM line. Low 125 m is the same DEM resample, verified. Ascent 819 m / descent 202 m remain provisional DEM. ⚠ secondary: Tripplatform — 860 m (2815 ft) (http://www.tripplatform.com/blog/?p=2168, accessed 2026-09-21). 860 mt (2815 feet). Fort summit elevation is a landmark, never this trail high point.
