How a track gets its grade

The grading system assesses a walk’s difficulty based on several criteria, including: experience required, steps, gradient, path quality, and signage. A walk’s final grade is based on the most difficult of these 5 criteria, rather than an average. So some walks will have criteria that meet an easier grade.
