Twenty classic day hikes in twenty different countries. Alpine lakes, waterfalls, Saharan sand dunes, volcanic moonscapes, 2000-year-old walls, and a big red rock right in the middle of Australia!
I have had the good fortune of doing all of these hikes between 1995 and the present day. None of the walks are beyond the capabilities of your average hiker, and all easily transport accessible. For photos, trekking notes & logistical information, click on the hike in which you are interested:
