I've always wanted to do Lycian Way, especially since I've never been to Turkey. Did you camp or did you stay in hostel/hotels etc.? Which section was your favorite?

My brother and I haven't done the Incan Trail or Kilimanjaro (yet) because we dislike hikes where you're legally required to have a guide, on principle. However, I'm sure we'll get around to the Salkanatay at some point. We've thought about it before. Thanks for the suggestions!

Wow, this is super helpful, because I haven't managed to get to Australia for hiking trips yet (even though I've been to New Zealand). I've considered sections of the Bibbleman trail before. Can't wait to get out there

So glad you liked the video! Yeah, doing the Grand Canyon in April sounds ideal! It's a fantastic adventure for sure. I've been wanting to get back to the Grand Canyon again to do more trips there because there's actually limitless possibility beyond just rim-to-rim, so I want to start digging...

I've never looked into the Picos de Europa. Good suggestion -- I'll check it out! The scenery on the TMB is incredible but it looks like the Picos de Europa views are amazing also.

Hi Jane! Glad you liked it! Yeah, the TMB is more physically challenging than the Camino (at least on a day-by-day basis) but don't be discouraged. The Robert Blanc and Fernete d'Arpette routes we took are the hardest parts of the TMB, but you can easily avoid them by taking the primary TMB...
I know some of you enjoyed my Camino video, and I recently walked the Tour du Mont Blanc, which is also a fantastic walking adventure. It's not as long as the Camino, but the hiking is significantly more challenging, and the views are amazing and it also has a social aspect like the Camino. If...
