vertical rise Explanation: This is the difference in altitude between the start of the walk/ride and the highest point. In Denmark, this could conceivably be the same as the altitude, as you probably start at sea level, whilst in Norway the starting point is probably considerably above sea level. By the same argument, in Holland you may possibly start below sea level. Example sentence(s):
