Hello

Welcome to Big Hill Adventure

Big Hill Adventure is a travel and hiking blog focused on one simple idea: getting out into the world and walking through it. 

Over the years I’ve found that the best way to experience a place is to go experience it up close and personal. It’s on foot. Hiking forces you to slow down, notice small details, and connect with landscapes and people in a way that faster travel never allows. 

This blog will follow my adventures on long-distance trails and mountain routes around the world. Some trips are famous routes, others are lesser-known trails that I heard about interacting with other hikers and travelers. Each one offers a different experience, but they all share the same basic appeal: the challenge of moving through a landscape step by step.

Summitting Mount Kilimanjaro

As a hiker, hikes like Mount Kilimanjaro comes up once in a while but it honestly seemed unattainable. It’s a huge financial commitment and hours and hours of travel to Tanzania. While I was in Thailand it seemed like it was a bit closer for me so I decided to absorb the finances and give it a shot!

3 Days Hiking in the Atlas Mountains

Hundreds of millions of years ago, the Appalachian Mountains, Atlas Mountains, and the Scottish Highlands were one Mountain range. Since I hiked the other two, it was time to get into the Atlas Mountains and connect all of them together for a multi-Continent long distance hike!

A month
in the Philippines

I began my Southeast Asia trip in Manilla but due to the extended Typhoon season my plans quickly changed. Friendly people, amazing culture, great food, and over 7500 islands to visit there was no shortage of adventures to be had!

Maine's 100 Mile Wilderness

After a stretch of grey and cooler temperatures, we finally had a nice break. I had the 100 mile wilderness in the back of my mind for a while and took the nicer stretch of weather as my sign to get after it. With the help of a friend I pre-positioned my vehicle at the northern end and was dropped off at the southern entrance to the hike.

Mekong River
Trip

After travelling by bus through most of Thailand I was eager to travel by any other means. Found an option for a Mekong River trip just east of Chiang Rai that sounded just like I was looking for. This boat ride ended up in Luang Prabang and that was a destination I wanted to go to eventually anyway so this was turning out perfect for me.
