A waymark is a symbol or sign marking the route of a trail. The Palestinian Heritage Trail uses the system of waymarking to denote the specific route and direction a trail follows. Besides the road sign, there may be a sign or informational board to provide certain information about a historical location, geographic details, or other points of interest.
Most of the sections of the trail are already waymarked. The Palestinian Heritage Trail had adapted the same waymarking system used in various European countries, such as France and Spain. The specific symbol, a red and white stripe, indicates that The Palestinian Heritage Trail is a long-distance hiking trail.
Be sure to become familiar with the specific symbol or style of the trail marking before relying solely on the waymarking. Generally, if you hike for an unusually long period without seeing another marking, return to the last marker you saw and assess if you may have taken a wrong turn somewhere.
