This list started off as a trekking list but has expanded beyond that and is ever growing as we learn about new places that catch our eye. So now, we aim to find a hike in every place we visit. For every destination we check off, it seems one or two new ones get added on! But maybe that's how it should be, because what happens when you check everything off?
