Hiking tours involve early mornings, great wildlife photography opportunities while providing the chance to travel with a group of like-minded individuals who love the great outdoors (just like you).<\/span><\/p>\n<div>\r\n<hr style=\"width: 100px; height: 2px; border: 0; background-color: #222; margin-left: 0; opacity: 1\" >\r\n<p style=\"margin-top: 1em;\"><em>See Also: <\/em><strong><a href=\"\/days-to-come\/rank-best-hikes-beginners-scotland\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">We Rank the Best Hikes for Beginners in Scotland<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\r\n<hr style=\"width: 100px; height: 2px; border: 0; background-color: #222; margin-left: 0; opacity: 1\" ><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Depending on the tour, sometimes you\u2019ll be responsible for pitching a tent and helping cook meals.

But there are some hikes that stand out as the most famous in the world:<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Tiger&#8217;s Nest, <a href=\"\/d\/bhutan\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Bhutan<\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most people who travel to Bhutan opt to make the hike up the side of a cliff to visit the breathtaking Buddhist monastery, The Tigers Nest. Perched 900 metres off the ground, this hike is steep, but the views are definitely worth it. <\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Distance: 3.25 kilometres (each way)<\/span><\/li>\n<li>Time: Two hours to get to the top, however, it is best to allow for five to seven hours for the entire hike<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>Tongariro Alpine Crossing, New Zealand<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Considered one of the best day hikes in <a href=\"\/d\/new-zealand\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">New Zealand<\/a> (and quite possibly the world), this hike boasts phenomenal landscapes and a uniquely beautiful volcanic terrain for your viewing pleasure. If you\u2019re looking for a hike with constantly changing scenery, this could be your top pick. <\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Distance: Roughly 19.5 kilometres (roundtrip)<\/span><\/li>\n<li>Time: Between six and eight hours<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>Trolltunga, Norway<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019ve seen a travel photo of someone doing a handstand on a cliff over a picturesque lake, it was probably captured at Trolltunga. Growing in popularity for its beauty and thrill-levels, this hike is both picturesque and extremely memorable for those who are game to brave the adventure. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Distance: 23 kilometres (roundtrip)<\/span><\/li>\n<li>Time: Between eight and ten hours<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>Torres del Paine Lookout, Chile<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This hike will leave you wanting to hike again and again, everywhere and anywhere.

And by longer, it\u2019s not just a few hours longer. A trek is typically two days or more. In fact, some treks can be weeks in length. Treks are also more strenuous and require more physical and mental ability. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Because you\u2019re walking for days at a time, you\u2019ll need to be fit enough to make it through the entire trip and be mentally strong enough to push yourself. While hiking is a leisure activity, trekking is a challenging activity that pushes you the entire way.<\/span><\/p>\n<div>\r\n<hr style=\"width: 100px; height: 2px; border: 0; background-color: #222; margin-left: 0; opacity: 1\" >\r\n<p style=\"margin-top: 1em;\"><em>See Also: <\/em><strong><a href=\"\/days-to-come\/world-famous-treks-ranked-by-difficulty\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">7 World Famous Treks Ranked By Difficulty<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\r\n<hr style=\"width: 100px; height: 2px; border: 0; background-color: #222; margin-left: 0; opacity: 1\" ><\/div>\n<h2><strong>What type of traveller is best suited for trekking?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Trekking tours are ideal for a traveller who\u2019s trying to push themselves, while still experiencing an adventure. This type of traveller enjoys the journey just as much as the final destination. They stay focused and committed, keeping the final goal in mind regardless of the current situation. And while a trekker might get tired, they simply wake up the next morning ready to do it all over again.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/Biyo6ZsntWf\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"12\" style=\" background:#FFF;

With a trek, the possibilities are endless \u2013 so be prepared to really rough it, including going to the washroom outdoors and bathing in rivers. Treks are in no way glamorous, but they\u2019re arguably some of the most rewarding experiences in the world. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>What are the must-do treks in the world?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are dozens of treks you\u2019ve probably heard of, but never imagined going on.

Unfortunately, it\u2019s not something you just wake up and decide to do. It takes some planning, preparation, and research. Consider the following before your next trek: <\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><em>Prepare your body<\/em>. Treks are long and arduous; your body needs to be prepared. Hit the gym, go for plenty of short hikes, and eat healthy foods to prepare for your trip. You\u2019ll thank yourself later on. <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><em>Do lots of research, especially if this is your first trekking tour.<\/em> You need to know about the weather, language, food\u2026 with so much to consider, leave yourself with lots of time to figure it all out. <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><em>Plan for AMS (Acute Mountain Sickness).<\/em> Lots of treks hit some pretty high altitudes and your body won\u2019t be prepared. It\u2019s important to give your body at least two days for acclimatization, so make bookings with that in mind. On top of that, Diamox tablets should be on your packing list in case sickness does strike. <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><em><a href=\"\/travel-insurance?source=dtc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Get travel insurance<\/a>.<\/em> Treks are much riskier than a hike. If anything goes against your plan, you might find yourself in a tricky situation. Avoid the risk and make sure you\u2019re covered \u2013 especially with traveller\u2019s health insurance. <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><em>Know your tent.<\/em> The last thing you want is a faulty tent or lack of knowledge on your gear. You\u2019ll be setting it up every night, so know it inside and out\u2026 literally. <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><em>Review the hiking tips.<\/em> For the most part, what to know before hiking also applies before trekking. From sharing your plans to avoiding cotton, the tips for hiking should also be reviewed before a trek. \u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<div>\r\n<hr style=\"width: 100px; height: 2px; border: 0; background-color: #222; margin-left: 0; opacity: 1\" >\r\n<p style=\"margin-top: 1em;\"><em>See Also: <\/em><strong><a href=\"\/days-to-come\/best-treks-vietnam-tips-tricks-where-to-go\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Best Treks in Vietnam: Tips, Tricks and Where to Go<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\r\n<hr style=\"width: 100px; height: 2px; border: 0; background-color: #222; margin-left: 0; opacity: 1\" ><\/div>\n<h2><strong>What should I pack to go trekking?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As with hiking, the gear for trekking is very dependent on your location and your tour.
