Elevation first, destination second. We’ve matched some of our favourite hikes with the nearby towns that offer the best post-hike atmosphere. Explore the trails on the left, then follow the road to a well-earned pint on the right.

Most of our routes are designed as ambitious day hikes. While you’ll often see similar hikes described elsewhere as two-day treks, we prefer to move fast in the mountains – often jogging the descents to make the most of our evenings in a great town. To keep the energy up, almost all our routes include a stop at a mountain hut for food and a drink, usually timed perfectly for the halfway point.
