The Hiking World, a wiki for wilderness trails

Why it surfaced

The site treats hiking records like careful reference material: unknown figures stay unknown, measurements can carry sources and verification dates, and logistics such as water and permits remain public. Its first 20 records prioritize places often underserved by generic mapping, including the Balkans, South America, Asia, and the Global South.

A source-backed trail archive covering distance, grades, water, permits, and car-free access.
