Welcome to North Idaho, home of the Selkirk Striders Volkssport Club . Named for the Selkirk Mountain Range which runs from Sandpoint to the Canadian border, the club was formed in 1991 and is one of only three volkssport clubs in Idaho. The primary objective of the club is to promote wellness, recreation and fellowship through non-competitive volkssport events. This is a non-profit organization with all proceeds being invested in volkssport events. No Volkswalks A volkswalk is an organized walk along a pre-marked trail and sanctioned by the American Volkssport Association .
Walkers go at their own pace and the event is non-competitive.
These events are an excellent way to begin a lifelong walking program, whether it is for your own walking pleasure or receiving credit at sanctioned events. Other local volkssport clubs also sponsor a variety of events throughout the year. Visitors to this web site are invited to take part in the National Walkers' Health Survey at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in California. Sandpoint Sandpoint is located in North Idaho on the northwest shore of Lake Pend Oreille and near the base of Schweitzer Mountain Resort.
