    The Bruce Trail in Ontario is 890 km long, there has to be more than 60+ rails to trails of varying lengths in Michigan, shore to shore trail is 220 miles, north country trail, white pine trails, numerous trails around the Sleeping Bear Dunes, i still think hiking the Hadrian Wall in the UK would be interesting.

  2. @charlieintampa6769 on December 10, 2024 at 7:35 pm

    Well done, Alice! Whenever I watch "top N" themed videos I rarely hear anything I did not already know, but you gave a bunch of good ideas. Thanks!

  3. @KennedyS123 on December 10, 2024 at 7:36 pm

    Excellent video🎉 Thank you so much! Adding the Columbia hike to my to do list❤

    The Highline Trail – Glacier NP is one of my favorite hikes. Big horn sheep strolled right by and kept me company

  7. @dwarsfluitistje on December 10, 2024 at 7:41 pm

    Next big hike for me, will be the MIUT in Madeira. It’s supposed to be stunning too. Happy hiking!

  8. @normancarbajal5154 on December 10, 2024 at 7:44 pm

    Tour Mont Blanc is on my list Alice! 👍…

    Cool video Alice. That’s a unique and diverse list of hikes for sure.

  11. @lauracorrea1666 on December 10, 2024 at 7:49 pm

    It’s ColOmbia not Columbia

  12. @dearmountains3431 on December 10, 2024 at 7:51 pm

    We love the scenery that you capture in your Videos! We also love to Hike and share you trips.💓💓
    We were astounded by the amazing scenery and trails in the world❣❣

  13. @neilquinn on December 10, 2024 at 7:51 pm

    Good list I’ve hit a number of these or some variant of them. Done: TMB, 1/2 of Kalalau, Inca trail instead of salkantay, Tugela falls, day hikes on 3 capes and grand canyon, and routeburn instead of milford. Add some of the other high regions of peru to your list like Huayhash trek/Santa Cruz. Also it’s spelled Colombia not Columbia – you’re gonna make people angry 🙂 Laugavegur is probably next for me and then Patagonia. I want to do dolomites/alta via but already did Italy so kind of want to wait on that.

    👍

  16. @onelovemon1784 on December 10, 2024 at 7:52 pm

    To try before you "go hike in the clouds". 👍🌞 When watching your hiking videos in my mind I keep hearing the instrumental of "Elevate" by St. Lucia. You are fabulous.

  17. @KeithDuhaime on December 10, 2024 at 7:53 pm

    Great review! Already done a number of them. A few more to add to the list; Grizzly Lake Trail in Tombstone Territorial Park, The Chilkoot Trail from Alaska into Canada, The Rockwall in Kootenay National Park, and as an alternative to West Coast Trail, check out Nootka Island Trail.

  18. @erichuifitness on December 10, 2024 at 7:54 pm

    Anything more than 3 days seems too intimidating lol

  19. @philbest427 on December 10, 2024 at 7:57 pm

    OMG Alice ! Thanks for your expert travel advice. I have been hiking since 2018 and really share your passion ! You have been everywhere and then some.

  20. @AliceFordAdventures on December 10, 2024 at 7:58 pm

    What’s next on your hiking list? Have any of these hikes made your list?

  21. @mikebavoso26 on December 10, 2024 at 7:58 pm

    Thank you so much. Who would even know about these places, without your expert videos.

  22. @kellylliam on December 10, 2024 at 7:58 pm

    Very inspiring thank you! Just an fyi, the West Coast Trail does not go thru the Great Bear Rainforest, the bottom of the GBR is on the north east side of Vancouver Island 🙂 Next week I’m on the WCT and in August the Tatchu Trail, above Nootka Island. I’ve done all the BC trails you mentioned, so good. For more Vancouver Island trails, try Nootka Island for a sweet little adventure, pretty easy and the North Coast Trail, a bit more challenging, but so wonderful. Thanks for the trails you mentioned, so inspiring 🙂

  23. @akash08031998 on December 10, 2024 at 7:58 pm

    No india or china?

  24. @MrSpermstar on December 10, 2024 at 7:58 pm

    Una natura antica, meravigliosa e spettacolare, dove il tempo trascorrere lento e silenzioso. Trascorrere avventure in questi luoghi è davvero speciale e affascinante.Un viaggio dentro il nostro sogno infinito,regalandoci il sapore della terra e della visione divina…Max da Sora ciociaria

    Te Araroa

  32. @Optidorf on December 10, 2024 at 8:09 pm

    So far I did three of them: Laugavegur, Alta Via I and the Salkantay.

    I understand the appeal of adding Tour du Mont Blanc to such a list, but there are a number of trails in the Alps that are better than the TMB: Haute Route, Tour de Matterhorn, …

    One trail I really want to highlight is the Fitzroy Massive in El Chalten which is imho even more beautiful than Torres del Paine. I did my best hike ever over there.

    Also Africa has some really nice trails. I want to hike the Rwenzori Mountains but given the instable situation in the border region with Congo it won’t be for any time soon unfortunately.

  33. @edmolash3401 on December 10, 2024 at 8:09 pm

    Great list!

  34. @ervinslens on December 10, 2024 at 8:11 pm

    Absolutely stunning upload and you narrated this just beautifully!

    Why not start a series of videos like this? Would love to see your “best hikes of California”. 😀

  39. @susiaso on December 10, 2024 at 8:18 pm

    it was very interesting, thank you so much for your presentation, Also i would like to invite you to come and experience 320 KM long diversify trekking path in my country Sri Lanka.

  40. @gamalyelg on December 10, 2024 at 8:19 pm

    02:34 “Twelve thousand meters of elevation gain”… that’s higher than Everest 😂. I guess it was “twelve hundred”, right? 🙂

  41. @silverianjannvs5315 on December 10, 2024 at 8:19 pm

    There is Alice in the world of Karen…

  43. @georgespencer3973 on December 10, 2024 at 8:20 pm

    Chain ladders to Sentinel Peak? And look over that waterfall? Lol. No.

  44. @travelbug_usa on December 10, 2024 at 8:21 pm

    Perfect bucket list ❤it

  45. @massytassymasalesa1189 on December 10, 2024 at 8:22 pm

    I want to start hiking thank you for this insight

  46. @chrisrichter4485 on December 10, 2024 at 8:24 pm

    Great list! I’ll have to be sure to check of few of these off my list. My favorite hike is the Highline trail in Glacier National Park.

  47. @jordancook1668 on December 10, 2024 at 8:29 pm

    Very hard to argue with this list. Excellent job.

  48. @s1u8n on December 10, 2024 at 8:30 pm

    this is a super solid list

  49. @tabbi888 on December 10, 2024 at 8:32 pm

    I saw a documentary about a family that were nearly washed away and drowned by a flash flood in buckskin gultch.there was even video footage of it it looked pretty harrowing just how fast it was filling up the speed and sheer volume of water rushing through was surprising. So I’d definitely take the narrators warnings seriously about wet weather and rain in the area. The family got out but it was a close call.

  50. @radisson8627 on December 10, 2024 at 8:32 pm

    Great assemble of hikes. Awesome video. My backpack is currently screaming to get out there, and I can’t wait for the warm season to begin. I do not have definitive plans this year but Cape Scott on Vancouver Island in British Columbia has been on my list for some time. If I had to pick a hike overseas, I would be tempted to do the Santiago de Compostela trail in Spain, probably not the entire length but hike a few days to have a better feel of the area 🇨🇦🥾☯️😎🏔
