From an easy stroll to hardcore adventuring, great walks are a great way to see the world. Sarah Downs scans the seven continents to find the right walk for you.
1. Cinque Terre, Italy
The Cinque Terre links five towns strung along Italy's rugged Liguria Riviera picture-perfect coastline. Hike through the iconic pastel-coloured villages and schedule in regular stops to try the region's amazing seafood and famous pesto.
Perfect for: Foodies after exercise to justify their next Italian meal.
2. Mount Kailash Pilgrimage, Tibet
Follow in the footsteps of devoted pilgrims who perform the challenging "kora" - a walk circling a sacred site-around the base of the mystical Mt Kailash. Climbing the mountain is forbidden, but the 52km trail covers waterfalls, sacred caves and the 5636m Dolma La Pass.
Perfect for: Yogis and those seeking spiritual enlightenment.
