Grade:

I've decided to follow the walk difficulty definitions from one of my favourite walking websites - The Walking Englishman. He defines the following:

• Easy: A straightforward walk with no difficulty. Less than 8 kilometres in length with less than 300 metres of climbing.
• Moderate: A walk of 8 kilometres and over and less than 16 kilometres and/or 300 - 599 metres of climbing.
• Hard: A walk of 16 - 28.9 kilometres and/or 600 - 999 metres of climbing.
• Strenuous: A walk of 29 kilometres or more and/or at least 1,000 metres of climbing.
• Technical: Any walk which requires exposed ridge walking, scrambling, water crossing, etc. These walks carry explanations in the report.
