While travel is all about making memories, we can’t deny that good pics matter for that perfect Instagram grid, which is why we’ve collected the most Instagrammable hikes in the world that are worth every step!


1. Mount Bromo, Indonesia


Mount Bromo erupts not only as a volcano, but on social media too! Located in East Java, this active volcano is often covered in mist at sunrise, creating photos that look like they’ve been Photoshopped. The hike is relatively short, but the view from the nearby Mount Penanjakan is the pic everyone’s after.




2. Half Dome, Yosemite National Park, USA


This 22 to 26km round-trip hike involves cables, granite stairs, and a serious incline. But the reward is views over Yosemite Valley with the iconic granite dome at your feet. You need to organise a permit in advance to do this hike, making it all the more special.



3. Trolltunga, Norway


Trolltunga (“The Troll’s Tongue”) juts out 700 metres above Lake Ringedalsvatnet, and is one of the world’s most dramatic natural platforms. The 27-km round trip is long and tough, but the pics from standing on that rock? Unbeatable, and very iconic.



4. Roy’s Peak, New Zealand


A zigzag through tussock hills leads to a sharp ridge overlooking Lake Wanaka and peaks still slightly covered in snow. Gives off the perfect ‘clean-alpine-girl’ aesthetic!



5. Huayna Picchu, Peru


Climb Huayna Picchu, the peak behind the ancient city, and you’ll get a bird’s-eye view of the ruins framed by forest and the Andean ridge. The climb is steep, slippery, and narrow, but the shots are worth it!
