12. Sunshine Coast Trail
There are plenty of trails that require hikers to pay a fee before they enter, but the Sunshine Coast Trail, which is maintained by volunteers, is one of the only ones in North America that boasts free entry.
The whole trail stretches over 110 miles of beautiful British Columbia coastline, and hiking it generally takes around 10-12 days if you do the whole route at once. There are 20 campsites along the route, plus 12 cozy huts which have been built and are maintained by the volunteers. If you’re brave, do it in the winter like these four crazy Dutchmen.
