Whether you prefer a casual stroll, a day-long hike or a week-long trek, there's a walk on planet Earth for you. But how do you choose where to walk, when there are so many incredible walking routes around the globe?

There are the classics: Peru's Inca Trail, Kilimanjaro in Tanzania and the famous Annapurna Circuit in Nepal. Then there are walks slightly more off-the-beaten-track: Mount Sinai in Egypt, the USA's breathtaking Virgin Narrows, and Hong Kong's refreshing Lantau Trail.
