## Method

Walking (not driving) route from the front door to the nearest edge of the sand, on the OpenStreetMap footpath network (OSRM foot profile, FOSSGIS server). Minutes at an easy 4.8 km/h. Climb home = the summed rises on the walk back from the sand to the door, from a digital elevation model, rounded to 5 m. Every route was then walked in person.
