Publishers Description: This title features 20 treks in wild terrain that is challenging, awesome in scope and has very little infrastructure. The trek lengths start at close to 100km (60 miles) and demand a minimum of five days to complete, so for all of them meticulous planning and expert guidance is often necessary. These adventurous hikes traverse every continent, from the russet hues of Alaskas autumn forests, along the spine of the Rockies from Canada to Mexico, through South Americas remote, uninhabited mountains and valleys, to the craggy heights of Europes Alpine region, across sacred Himalayan peaks and over the jagged escarpments of Africa and Australias coastal tropical rainforest. Treks vary from an ancient pilgrim route, a trail on a frozen river, Macchu Picchus mystical ruins, a yak-supported trek into the heart of the Himalayas and a summit expedition up Africas snow peak, Kilimanjaro. Route maps and fact panels are included.
