From a multi-day hike following the routes of a Japanese poet,to a classic climb in the Argentinian Lake District,there are thousands of incredible trails (小路) that allow us to get up close to nature.
Appalachian Trail,United States
Extending for 2,200 miles,the Appalachian Trail is listed as the longest hiking-only footpath in the world.It runs from Springier Mountain in Georgia to Mount Katahdin in Maine,passing through some of the most remote country in the United States.That means it's a hard task,either for those with endless vacation allowance,or walkers looking to do a small piece of a classic route.
The Basho Wayfarer,Japan
This self-guided trip follows a route taken by the poet Matsuo Basho over 300 years ago.The six-day hike starts in Sendai and works its way through the northern Tohoku region,passing through the UNESCO World Heritage (遺產(chǎn))Site of Hiraizumi and along the ancient Dewa Kaido path.With its beech and cherry forests,it finishes at the temple of Yamadera.
Mount Toubkal,Morocco
The path upwards rises from the village of Imlil,passing over a dry river bed before rising sharply through a temple and on towards a large mountain cottage.After overnight here,hikers set off up the snowfield to the peak,where the Atlas Mountains open out and the views are breathtaking.A local guide and muleteers for carrying luggage are a must.
The Dingle Way,Ireland
It is a ring-like path that offers the best way to get under the skin of wild County Kerry in Ireland's south west.Starting in the town of Tralee,the clockwise path follows narrow roads,taking in the wide sweep of sand at Inch Strand,passing along the clifftops outside Dingle town and heading around the edge of Mount Brardon,the highest peak on the Dingle Peninsula.
