Whatever continent you choose, trekking gets you up close and personal with some of the world’s wildest and most beautiful landscapes.
Whether you’re following man-made wonders through stunning scenery – China’s Great Wall, the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu – or taking the measure of continental icons – up Kilimanjaro, around Mont Blanc, into the Everest Range – at its best a trek is a test, an exploration, of both self and place.
Treks can open up countries in a whole new way: check out the spellbinding Simien Mountains of Ethiopia, Japan’s Alps or the Mongolian Altai trek for a glimpse at the rugged, hidden heart of these countries.
From Nepal’s unbeatable high passes to Papua New Guinea’s classic, gruelling Kokoda Track, it’s truly better to travel than to arrive – particularly when the travel’s all on your own steam.
