@ Myriad Treks Road
Avalon steps off the boat onto Alcona with fellow traveller Artie. Time for a look around, but first a long stretch after the voyage!
Myriad Treks Road
Some amazing scenery meets the eye on this exciting journey. Will the traveller ever reach those peaks in the far distance?

Landmark 2/25

@ Cactaceae Highway
Avalon moved on to shake the next paw, oblivious to the fact that she'd also shaken Asparagus, who had wandered off to pick wildflowers along the way...

Where does this road lead to as it stretches into the distance with no end in sight? It will be fun to find out!

Landmark 3/25

Avalon and Foxy pool their small change, hoping to buy some small souvenirs to remind them of this place!

What a romantic looking old wooden dock, snaking far out into the water! How many happy trips out have started or finished here?

Landmark 4/25

@ Burro Track
Avalon tumbled out of the tourist bus, flattening Cassiopeia in the process, then wondering where the muffled groans were coming from?
Burro Track
The landscape over in this part of Alcona is more arid. Take plenty of water when you go for a trip in this part, pets!

Landmark 5/25

@ Fair Mystery
"You know what's missing here, Avalon?"

"No, BRUNO, what's missing?"

"Nothing, Avalon. This place is purr-fect!"
Fair Mystery
It's at night when some plants and flowers give off their most intense scent, or perhaps it's also that after the air has cleared from the clamour of the day, we have more chance of detecting their perfume. Breathing deeply in a pine forest has proven benefits to the lungs!

Landmark 6/25

@ Dashing Brook
While Avalon was in a hurry to move along and shake some more paws, Jellin' decided to stay put and sketch the scenery for this week's Art Challenge...
Dashing Brook
What a sight! Water from the river above hurtles its way down the rocks, spraying anypet standing too near!

Landmark 7/25

@ Galloway Falls
While Avalon thinks the scenery is lovely, she wonders where Jewel intends to set up camp?
Galloway Falls
Have you ever felt a sense of joy as you stand next to an awe-inspiring waterfall? It is said that waterfalls can make us happy. Even though some might dismiss this as an old pets’ tale, there does seem to be some scientific thinking behind the theory that waterfalls generate positive vibes. Waterfalls are considered to be one giant ion generator— the watery downpour gives off negative ions, which we take in as positive energy. Once the negative ions reach our bloodstream, they are said to increase our bodies’ production of serotonin, which is the chemical responsible for relieving stress and depression, and for boosting our energy and happiness. So it’s not surprising we might feel so great when we’re around waterfalls!

Landmark 8/25

@ Ripening Harvest
While Avalon soaked in the view, Noelle was searching her backpack for the bug spray, certain that her fur would be crawling with little biting critters once the sun went down!
Ripening Harvest
We plough the fields and scatter the good seed on the land.
But it is fed and watered by God's almighty hand.
He sends the snow in winter, the warmth to swell the grain,
The breezes and the sunshine, and soft refreshing rain.

Landmark 9/25

@ Prospectors Conifer Patch
Arriving at such a wonderful location spurred Avalon on to keep on trekking. However Robby sat down, refusing to budge, complaining of blisters on his paws...
Prospectors Conifer Patch
Don't you just wish you were here? A beautiful river with exciting twists and turns, pine trees varying in colour from dark green to gold, rocky outcrops and distant conifer-clad peaks conspire to make this the most delightful of spots!

Landmark 10/25

@ Forbidden Mesa
Avalon asked Spark if he had a fur clip on him, as Avalon wanted to fashion a fishing pole and stop to dangle a line...?
Forbidden Mesa
Rumour has it that the lake is bottomless. Others say an underground passage links it to the nearby Galloway Falls. Perhaps a visiting pet might see an arm protruding from the lake brandishing a sword! Take care, furry or feathery ones ...

Landmark 11/25

@ Lyrical Cove
While Avalon soaked in the view, mole was searching his backpack for the bug spray, certain that his fur would be crawling with little biting critters once the sun went down!
Lyrical Cove
A tree-lined shore helps make this a most peaceful lake ... particularlyl as the sun goes down, changing the colours of lake and skay to pink ...

Landmark 12/25

@ Fremlin Point
Avalon was becoming increasingly irritated with the constant clicking and beeping of Choose a name's camera disturbing the peace and quiet, so Avalon moved purposefully on without her!
Fremlin Point
A sailing boat sitting moored invitingly on this calm lake just beckons the pets to come and take a trip! But don't all get into the boat at once, and remember not to stand up when underway!

Landmark 13/25

@ Picayune Lake
After months of planning, Avalon and Choose a name finally agreed on where they would travel together, and they are both secretly please with their choice!

Breathe deeply to get the full benefit of the scent of the pines, relaxing by this peaceful lake.

Landmark 14/25

@ Exploration Point
While Avalon normally avoids tourist hotspots, she is glad she allowed Crocodile Beauty to bring her here!
Exploration Point
There will be an excited group of happy pets queueing to use these telescopes to see what they can see! Just don't fall into the water, anypet!

Landmark 15/25

@ Elfin Glitter Cove
Did you just photo bomb me? Avalon asked Moo as they shared the wonder of the vista.
Elfin Glitter Cove
One of the benefits of being on an island is having the glorious sea all around. Whatever its changing face, according to the weather, we are reminded of its constant energy at all times as waves crash onto the shore and draw back, dragging a myriad pebbles and shells in their wake.

Landmark 16/25

As night falls at the end of another busy day, activity-weary but contented pets can retire for the night knowing that at sunrise another exciting day will start on their island adventure.

Some Enchanted Eden
A paradise for beachcombers roaming the beach keeping an eye out for interesting jetsam in the quiet of the evening sunset—but 'ware those rocks!

Landmark 20/25

@ Kinsella Cove
While Avalon was busy snapping photos, Sadie wandered off to find a suitable bush, as there was a decided lack of amenities in the immediate area!
Kinsella Cove
A gem of a secluded cove awaits anypet exploring this far. Shelter from the breeze is provided by the marram grass and a fun time can be had building sandcastles by the sea.

Landmark 21/25

@ Rippling Wave Bay
While Avalon was in a hurry to move along and shake some more paws, Beast decided to stay put and sketch the scenery for this week's Art Challenge...
