The 35 Best Hikes in the World (that anyone can do) on Explore! list were evaluated according to their length (distance), elevation, duration, wether and instagrammability. The hiking trails in the ranking were taken from top trail recommendations from users on AllTrails, Komoot and authoritative travel blogs. The best trail in the world according to Explore!'s list was the Perito Moreno Glacier Trail in El Calafate, Santa Cruz (Argentina), followed by the Aoraki/Mount Cook Loop in Canterbury (New Zealand) and the Scenic Drive in the Zion National Park in Springdale, Utah (USA).
