I suspect 2009 will see the emergence of proper OSM
walking/hiking maps so
its time we got our act together.
Please pull the page apart and add new stuff. Ideally try to
keep content
and ideas in the same sort of format as the Cycle Route ones so
that we have
some synergy and we don't

It's Sustrans National Route 68, the whole of which (well, except for two

I don't think that the Pennine Bridleway is complete yet (they haven't
decided where the northern part of the route will go). Where I have
seen it signposted (from Derbyshire up towards Lancs) it seems to go in
the same direction is the Pennine Way but runs on mostly separate
bridleways.
I started a stub http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Walking_Routes based
upon the Cycle Routes page. I hope this doesn't duplicate anything but I
could not find a landing page on the wiki to cover long distance walking and
hiking routes generally.

If it would help to tie the Cleveland Way relation together I can offer
a series of 300m-separated waypoints in OSGB format for the section
between Helmsley (actually from the spur at the bottom of White Horse
Bank) and Guisborough. No tracklog though - it is from an old GPS with
no data
if it
didn't.

I think it's the latter, the same as for cycling routes being the
meta, rather than the physical (cycleway). I've thought about this
before but I never followed it through. I really think that they
cycling stuff works well, and it could easily be replicated into
