Such breathtaking scenes are captured in photos from Cam Honan’s book, The Hidden Tracks: Wanderlust Off the Beaten Path, published by Gestalten, which guides readers along scenic trails, on adventures off the beaten track and through pristine hiking destinations around the world, from forests of giant trees to the world’s highest sand dunes in Mongolia.
There’s no limit to the number of better-known paths or out-of-the-way gems ready to be explored—be it an expedition on the other side of the world or a day’s hike just a few hours from your hometown.
So go. Answer the call of the mountains, hills, valleys and dales found along these scenic hikes.
