Not only did I have the privilege to hike amongst some of the world's best terrain, but I did so for considerably less money than you might think and had the solitude and flexibility that only hiking independently without a guide provides. This guide provides very thorough details on a selection of multi-day treks rather than brief summaries of a myriad of hikes.
