Partial line

The line in the dataset measures 788.8 km against a published 1,500 km (−47.4%).

OSM gives 788.8 km in 32 parts. Rando Quebec now describes the Sentier national au Quebec as about 1,830 km in nine regions (2024), so the 1,500 km in this record is also out of date, and much of the network is local built segments that are not yet one continuous mapped line in OSM. Kept as built segments; no whole-line source found.

GPX is simplified to 5 m for devices. GeoJSON is the full-resolution line as published in this dataset. Neither carries elevation.
