Fraser Island (K'gari) Great Walk

The K'gari (Fraser Island) Great Walk is an 8-day through-hike covering approximately 90km point-to-point within the Great Sandy National Park, Queensland. The route traverses often described as one of the largest sand island, moving through diverse ecological zones including high rainforests established on deep-sand substrates, mangrove systems, and freshwater perched lakes. Surface conditions are consistently sand-based, transitioning between consolidated forest paths and uncompacted dune segments. The route provides a cross-section of the island's unique hydrology and mature Satinay (Syncarpia hillii) timber stands. Access is regulated by Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service (QPWS).

Reinebringen is undoubtedly the highly recognizable and photographed viewpoint in the Lofoten Islands, and perhaps all of Norway. This short, aggressive 1.2-mile (2km) round-trip hike skyrockets out of the ocean to an altitude of 448m. The trail was famously dangerous and eroded due to massive over-tourism, so a team of Nepalese Sherpas was hired to build a massive, 1,978-step stone staircase up the mountain. Conquering the stairs leads to a dizzying, knife-edge ridge that drops vertically into the ocean, offering a mind-blowing bird's-eye view directly down onto the picturesque fishing villages of Reine, Sakrisøy, and Hamnøy, connected by bridges across the deep blue fjords.
