From the Appalachian Trail in the U.S. to the Bibbulmun Track in Australia, the Awesome Maps Hiking Map highlights some of the world’s preeminent hiking trails.
Awesome Maps, the company behind climbing, travel, surfing, and adventure maps (among others), this week released a map all about hiking.
The Hiking Map displays 350 trails across all continents, including popular and lesser-known trails. Each description includes the trail’s length, elevation, travel time, and ecosystem.
The brand researched the trails by asking hikers around the world in addition to selecting known “top” trails. Lars Seffeirt, who has worked with Awesome Maps on a number of maps, illustrated the Hiking Map by hand.
