Let the magic of the outdoors take you to some breathtaking places! It appears to be a commercial for Israel but certainly provides some great views. Thanks to Drew Curtis' FARK and BuzzFeed @ http://www.buzzfeed.com/h2/shfk/reth...s-in-the-world
How can such a small nation far out in the South Pacific have such awesome scenery? Every time I was Lord of the Rings or The Hobbit filmed there, a can't believe what I'm seeing.
Well, atleast I can say I have been on two of them. I do agree with the above poster about not including the Grand Canyon Trails as it beats out some of the ones on the list.
Anyone ever been on numer 9: the Sir Samuel and Lady Florence Baker Historical Trail ?

Israel is not in the South Pacific. It is located on the Eastern shore of the Mediterranean Sea at a strategic location connecting 3 continents (Europe, Asia & Africa).

2 trails on that list from Israel is kind of strange, and calling The Bob Marshall Wilderness a trail is really understated. "The Bob" has trails, it's not a trail in itself.
Also the pictures seem to focus on overlooks, which I guess is to be understood for commercial reasons. A good trail has a mix of seclusion, wilderness, flaura and fauna, and, for urban trails - history and culture. They don't all need scenic overlooks.

I was referring to the picture I posted which was from NEW ZEALAND!
I don't understand why he describes the Cinque Terre trail as a 'flat path'. Some of it's flat but most of it's the opposite of that, at least in the areas where most people hike.
Also, I got the feeling that this whole list was more about he author trying to showcase all the exotic travels he/she's taken and less about trying to pick the true winners. Because I can think of at least half a dozen trails right here in the western US which would blow away some of the ones he/she chose.
