Long walks / pilgrimages of the world

I have discovered that walking is one of the most powerful ways for me to truly experience a country and its people - the longer the better. I will gradually expand this list as I discover more long walks in different countries...

Australia
See John Chapma's list of long distance walking tracks in Australia. Most famous is the Overland Track in Tasmania. Generally, all tracks require you to be self sufficient, with food and a tent. Many tracks are in remote country.

Canada

Israel
Israel National Trail 990kms.
