All around the world
Europe: South West Coast Path (Great Britain)
Originally created as a coastguard patrolling route, this long-distance footpath stretches for just over 1,000 kilometres and always follows the coastline. Despite its proximity to the sea, there is no lack of climbs and peaks due to the many cliffs along the way.
Africa: Drakensberg Mountains (South Africa)
Profound solitude, circling vultures, impressive cloud formations and a unique mountain landscape that advanced hikers will love. Apart from a few shepherd’s pathways, hiking trails and infrastructure are seldom found here.
South America: the famous peaks of the Andes
Patagonia is a veritable mecca for trekking enthusiasts. It’s also great for beginners. For example, in three days you can get up close to the famous mountains Fitz Roy and Cerro Torre.
North America: Pacific Crest Trail (USA)
The trail that has it all – from lonely deserts to high peaks and extensive forests. Suitable for both day trips and overnight excursions.
Asia: Tien-Shan Mountains (Kyrgyzstan)
One of the highest mountain ranges in the world with lots of high plateaus and crystal clear lakes. There are hardly any actual hiking trials here. But that’s exactly what makes the “Mountains of Heaven” so alluring.
Oceania: Bibbulmun Track (Australia)
This not-too-challenging long-distance hiking route has a surprise in store at the end... After weeks of hiking through eucalyptus forest, hikers are rewarded by the brilliant blue of the Antarctic Ocean.
