THE WORLD'S 10 BEST WALKS

(Walkopedia's provisional rating)

WALK OF THE MONTH

Wind River Mountains, NW: Wind River Mts, USA

  • Superb scenery - the usual but not predictable peaks, cliffs, lakes, rivers and forests. Carved by immense glacial forces. Totally pristine wilderness, with a wide selection of Rockies wildlife.
  • This is tough walking in high, remote mountains, on which you will have to be self-sufficient and where altitude can cause problems. Come prepared.
  • Any photos and comments welcome!

LATEST WALK

Grand Teton National Park, NW: Grand Teton NP,USA

  • The dramatically jagged peaks of the Grand Tetons, America's youngest mountain range, dominate the Grand Teton National Park, their majesty reflected in mirror-like lakes.
  • The stark contrast between the flat valley-plain of Jackson Hole and its encircling mountains is spectacular, attracting almost 4 million annual visitors.
  • With more than 250 miles of trails, the Park offers many different and wonderful hikes. The best known and longest hike is the Teton Crest Trail: a challenging walk through the entirety of the Teton Range, with magnificent views.
  • Some of these are difficult walks in serious mountains: come prepared.
