في هذه المقالة سنخبرك بأفضل 10 امكان للرحلات حول العالم
1. GR20, France
This demanding 15- day (168km, 104mi) slog through
Corsica
is legendary for the diversity of landscapes it traverses. There are
forests, granite moonscapes, windswept craters, glacial lakes, torrents,
peat bogs, maquis, snow-capped peaks, plains and névés (stretches of
ice formed from snow). But it doesn’t come easy: the path is rocky and
sometimes steep, and includes rickety bridges and slippery rock faces –
all part of the fun. Created in 1972, the GR20 links Calenzana, in the
Balagne, with Conca, north of Porto Vecchio.
2. Inca Trail, Peru

This 33km (20mi) ancient trail was laid by the Incas and is currently
traversed by thousands each year. The trail leads from the Sacred
Valley to
Machu Picchu
winding its way up and down and around the mountains, taking three high
passes en route. Views of white-tipped mountains and high cloud forest
combine with the magic of walking from one cliff-hugging ruin to the
next – understandably making this South America’s most famous trail.
3. Pays Dogon, Mali
‘The land of the Dogon people’ is one of Africa’s most breathtaking
regions. A trek here can last anywhere between two and 10 days, and
takes in the soaring cliffs of the Bandiagara escarpment inlaid with old
abandoned cliff dwellings. Dogon villages dot the cliffs and are an
extraordinary highlight of the journey. The Dogon are known for their
masked stilt dancers, intricately carved doors and pueblo-like dwellings
built into the side of the escarpment.
4. Everest Base Camp, Nepal
Reaching a height of 5,545m (18,193ft) at Kala Pattar, this
three-week trek is extremely popular with those who want to be able to
say, ‘I’ve been to the base of the world’s highest mountain’. The
difficult trek passes undeniably spectacular scenery and is trafficked
by Sherpa people of the Solu Khumbu. The heights reached during this
trek are literally dizzying until you acclimatise to the altitude, and
the continuous cutting across valleys certainly has its ups and downs.
5. Indian Himalayas, India
Fewer folk trek on the Indian side of the world’s greatest mountain range. So, if isolation’s your thing try trekking in
Himachal Pradesh. Hardcore hikers can try teetering along the mountain tops for 24 days from Spiti to
Ladakh.
This extremely remote and challenging walk follows ancient trade
routes. The bleak high-altitude desert terrain inspired Rudyard Kipling
to exclaim, ‘Surely the gods live here; this is no place for men’.
6. Overland Track, Australia

Tasmania’s
prehistoriclooking wilderness is most accessible on the 80km (50mi,
five- to six-day) Overland Track. Snaking its way between Cradle
Mountain and Lake St Clair (Australia’s deepest natural freshwater
lake), the well-defined path (boardwalked in parts) passes craggy
mountains, beautiful lakes and tarns, extensive forests and moorlands.
Those who want more can take numerous side walks leading to waterfalls,
valleys and still more summits including Mt Ossa (1,617m, 5,305ft) –
Tassie’s highest.
7. Routeburn Track, New Zealand

New Zealand’s
South Island surrounding this medium three-day (32km, 20mi) track. At
the base of New Zealand’s Southern Alps, the track passes through two
national parks:
Fiordland
and Mt Aspiring. Highlights include the views from Harris Saddle and
atop Conical Hill – from where you can see waves breaking on the distant
beach. The main challenge for this popular hike is actually securing a
place among the limited numbers who are allowed on the track at any
time.
8. The Narrows, USA
A 26km (16mi) journey through dramatic canyons carved over centuries by the Virgin River, the Narrows in
Zion National Park
is a hike like no other. The route is the river, with over half of the
hike spent wading and sometimes swimming. The hike can be traversed in a
day, though some choose to take the hanging gardens and natural springs
at a more leisurely pace – spending a night at one of the park’s 12
camp grounds.
9. The Haute Route, France-Switzerland
Leading from Chamonix in
France through the southern Valais to Zermatt in
Switzerland,
the Haute Route traverses some of the highest and most scenic country
accessible to walkers anywhere in the Alps. The summer Haute Route walk
(which takes a different course than the more famous winter skitouring
route) takes around two weeks to complete. It mainly involves ‘pass
hopping’ and demands a high level of fitness, with every section
containing a high huff factor.
10. Baltoro Glacier & K2, Pakistan
This corridor of ice leads to the colossal peak of K2 (8,611m,
28,251ft), the world’s second-highest peak. This incomparable trek
traverses some of the most humbling scenery on the planet. What begins
following icy rivers boldly goes to the guts of the glacier before
leading to the granite pyramidal mountains including Paiju (6,610m,
21,686ft), Uli Biaho (6,417m, 21,053ft), Great Trango Tower (6,286m,
20,623ft) and ultimately K2. If the 15 days doesn’t floor you, take side
trips to more moraine-covered glaciers.
