Roadwalking

Roadwalking is a thru-hiking term, indicating a walk on a road instead of a trail. It sometimes provides an easier way to reach a further point on the trail, for example by avoiding steep mountain ascents. A roadwalk is sometimes an unavoidable part of some long trail systems, such as the Appalachian Trail, North Country Trail and the partially unfinished Continental Divide Trail in the United States, and the Coast to Coast Walk in the United Kingdom.
