The Best Hikes on Earth




 
 

5. W Circuit, Torres Del Paine NP, Chile

Located down at the southernmost region of Chile, the W Circuit in Torres Del Paine National Park, is one of the world’s most famous hikes. Easily identifiable by the jagged towers of rock and glacial lakes, this rugged and remote region draws hikers from around the world.

 

6. Samaria Gorge, Greece

The Samaria Gorge hike is the best hike on the island of Crete and one of Crete’s top attractions. Starting in pine forests, this one-way hike descends through a narrow valley, eventually ending at the Libyan Sea. The hike is just over 16 kilometers in length, and you’ll drop over 1,500 meters.
