Hiking is strenuous but well worth it. Not only can we take in the beautiful scenery, and the amazing peaks, but also enjoy the peaceful snapshots rich in local colors. Here are some of the most worthwhile mountain hikes in the world.

1. Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa

Distance: 75km丨Duration 7-10 days

Mount Kilimanjaro, the "Top of Africa" at an altitude of 5,895 meters, is the most famous trekking place on the entire African continent and one of the "must-see destinations before you die".

Located on the equator, the top of the mountain is covered with ice and snow all year round. There are 5 routes to the summit, among which the Banyan Creek, Hilla, Lemoshaw, and Maham Loops are considered the most scenic routes.

Due to the high altitude and difficulty, climbing the peak requires a guide. Walking on the glacier, among the clouds, is like being in a fairyland. It's all worth it when you stand on top of the mountain and look down at the clouds.

2. Mont Du Blanc Trek, Europe

Distance: 168km丨7 days

This is a classic hiking route in the Alps that runs through France, Switzerland, and Italy. Most people will start with Chamonix, France, or Champex, Switzerland.

The beautiful scenery along the way is endless, the glaciers rise towering, and the clear lake reflects the sky like a mirror. You can see many wild animals such as antelope, deer, eagles, etc., as well as alpine flowers that are all over the mountain in spring.

Although the total length is very long, there are many guides in the local area, and you don't need to go the whole way, but you can customize your favorite route.

There are comfortable wooden houses and hotels in the mountains, as well as local delicacies that whet your appetite, making your hiking journey relaxing and enjoyable.

3. Preikestolen, Norway

Distance: 4.1km丨4 hours

People who like Norway should be familiar with Preikestolen in Norway! This is a 604-meter-high cliff standing on the coast of Lysefjord, with a 25-meter-long boulder sticking out.

This trail is relatively easy, with a height of 350 meters. It only takes 4 hours to go back and forth, and you can set foot on the most famous natural wonder in the world and see the magnificent Norwegian fjords.

4. Bay of Fires Walk, Tasmania

Distance: 75km丨4 days

Bay of Fires is located in Tasmania, the smallest island in Australia, and known as "the second most beautiful beach in the world". The stretch of coastline is about 29 kilometers long, and the altitude changes very little, no more than 50 meters, so it is a relatively leisure trail suitable for all ages.

Red rocks and white sand beaches are the hallmarks of this place. The white sand is as fine as stepping on flour, while the surrounding rocks and headlands are full of iconic orange-red lichens, which look like they have been burned by the sun.

You can explore dramatic rock formations and secluded sea caves, walk through fragrant eucalyptus forests, and enjoy activities such as kayaking and snorkeling by the sea.

5. Tongariro Alpine Crossing, New Zealand

Distance: 20km丨Duration: 8-10 hours

Located in New Zealand's oldest national park and a double UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Tongariro Alpine Crossing is one of the most spectacular hikes on Earth.

At an altitude of up to 1800 meters, it has breathtaking landscapes, passing three active volcanoes and emerald lakes. Since there are no trees to block, direct sunlight is strong, so sun protection must be done.
