Your best guide to the world’s best hikes

We are Emma, James, Kiran and Kai. We love hiking*. And we hate lists of the “10 best hikes in the world” with no useful information. Or worse, blithe advice like “the hike takes 5 months,” “one of the easiest 6,000m mountains to climb” or – my favorite – “watch out for bandits”.

Here you’ll find hiking trail descriptions, maps, photos and more for accessible hikes that anyone with reasonable fitness can do. You’ll easily see if a hike is right for your level – and you’ll know where to go, what to take and what to expect.

Because while bucket lists are fun for dreaming, it's even more fun to get out and hike!

* Well, James and I love to hike; the kids are great walkers and mostly don't complain too much.
