This ultimate hiker's bucket list, from the celebrated Appalachian Trail to Micronesia's off-the-beaten-path Six Waterfalls Hike, treks through 100 energizing experiences for all levels.

Filled with beautiful National Geographic photography, wisdom from expert hikers like Andrew Skurka, need-to-know travel information, and practical wildlife-spotting tips, this inspirational guide offers the planet's best experiences for hikers and sightseers. From short day hikes--California's Sierra High Route, Lake Agnes Teahouse in Alberta, Norway's Mt. Skala--to multiday excursions like Mt. Meru in Tanzania and multi-week treks (Egypt's Sinai Trail, Bhutan's Snowman Trek, and the Bibbulum Track in Australia), you'll find a hike that matches your interests and skill level. Crossing all continents and climates (from the jungles of Costa Rica to the ice fields in Alaska's Kenai Fjords National Parks), as well as experiences (a wine route through Switzerland or moose spotting on the Teton Crest Trail in Wyoming,) there is a trail for everyone in these pages. So pack your gear and lace your boots: this comprehensive and innovative guide will lead you to experience the best hikes of your life!

Title: Great Travel Book for the Great Outdoors
Review: Actually saw this on someone’s coffee table and started reading it RIGHT THERE! A few minutes later I picked up my phone and immediately ordered this from Amazon- I HAVE NEVER DONE THIS BEFORE! This book is amazing as it outlines a variety of hikes upon some of the most beautiful places in the world. Book picks out short and long hikes and rates them on different levels of time, distance and difficulty. I highly recommend this book for everyone!

Title: Perfect gift!
Review: MIL is an avid hiker and was planning her next trip within days of receiving this book! The book goes into great detail about what to expect on each hike. Difficulty, length and time. As well as best times of year. Overall perfect! Even if you keep it as a coffee table book the images are stunning and will have your imagination wondering.

Title: Beautiful and well-bound book
Review: Classic quality of National Geographic publications with dramatic and diverse photography and copy that is both enjoyable and informative. The foreword by Adam Sakura adds a nice touch. Kate Siber writes engaging and descriptive introductions to each hike and provides critical details (distance, best time to go, length of trip, difficulty) Novices will appreciate some of the packing information. Display it on the coffee table and you’ll find yourself picking it up frequently to dream of and plan your next adventure.
