The Transit Trekker Manual is a different kind of travel guide. It offers essential info and resources to help you plan and enjoy car-free outdoor recreation trips that apps can’t deliver, and encourages readers to support advocacy efforts to expand rural mobility to strengthen communities and improve car-free access to outdoor recreation for everyone. Other stuff to know:
- The manual includes tips from a seasoned transit trekker (me) for car-free day trips, backpacking, biking, and e-biking
- First release will be for Washington state; additional releases planned for other regions
- Initially issued in e-reader and PDF formats; Print edition TBD based on interest
- Sign up to get access to a sample trip guide.
- Check the resource page to find transit trekking info for other regions of the U.S. and Canada.
