Stevenson Trail: Robert Louis Stevenson Trail France GR70 Stevenson Trail [GR 70] is not only a modern classic, but the benchmark for recreational hikes. You walk from Le Monastier, near Puy-en-Velay in Haute Loire, to St Jean-du-Gard in Cévennes, a distance of 125-miles/201 kms. Walked by Robert Louis Stevenson in 1878, the route inspired him to write ‘Travels with a Donkey in the Cévennes’ (1879), a ground-breaking novel and classic of outdoor literature that set the standard for travelogues thereafter. Stevenson was, in many ways, the pioneer of the modern hiking movement, as the book presents hiking and camping outdoors as a recreational activity.

the world's best walks Here is our (currently preliminary) list of the world’s Top 100 walks, created as part of William Mackesy’s research for his planned book on the World’s Best Walks. See our Walks Assessment System. The Top 100 is a distillation: some walks on our All Walks list have been combined for creating a definitive Top 100 that avoids inappropriate duplication.

Our best one-day hiking trip was in the Palatinate Easy Hiker never pretends to have all the answers. For example, one question that I still have not been able to settle after all these years on the road is this: What’s the better hiking holiday – a continuous trail that you follow from town to town or a series of one-day hikes? One-day hikes certainly have advantages: for one, you can put your heavy stuff away and hike with a daypack of necessities, essentially a few sandwiches and a bottle of water. (Hands up everybody who enjoys lugging around 10 kg or more. Well?… I thought so.)
