François, a hiker for 30 years and founder of Horizonrando
While planning my trips, I quickly realised a problem: the vast majority of websites recommend the same hikes — the ones whose photos flood social media. The result is overcrowded trails and hidden gems that remain overlooked.
Horizonrando does the opposite. Every year, I hike over 2 000 kilometres and complete around a hundred hikes per destination in order to compare routes and identify those that are truly worth the detour — from the must-see classics to the lesser-known trails.
Each guide is the result of real-world experience : GPS data collected on site, authentic photos, and an honest opinion on the difficulty and appeal of the route. No sheet is written without having walked the trail, and none are sponsored.
