LAZAROW WORLD HIKE-ABOUT

Nepal, Begnas: The Annapurna Mountain Range (part).

'LAZAROW WORLD HIKE-ABOUT: WHAT IN THE WORLD IS HIKE-ABOUT?'

Hike-about is an adventure that commenced June 2010. After storing our household movables, ridding ourselves of a house but retaining our 'home' together, we set off with the purpose of hiking in different parts of the world, not forgetting the home country, the USA.

Our primary focus is hiking to mountain peaks but any challenging hike will do just fine. Extended stays enable us to enjoy and experience living in various places amongst differing cultures. Hike-about has evolved into a way of life. It's also a process of discovery, both the world and ourselves.

We work and live 'on the road' but return to the city in which our grandchildren reside, every three, or slightly less, months. This provides us the wonderful opportunity to be with them as well as a child or two, even three and of course, friends.

 By the end of 2024, the blog contained over 1,636 hikes (far less than actually undertaken), each a set of pictures with stories and anecdotes from the trails. An index to the right allows the viewer to identify earlier experiences.

Finally, we are often asked about the journey's end. Our reply, as accurate as we can state, is: "When we are either forced to cease through health issues or the enjoyment level no longer reaches our aspirations, we will hang up the boots."

"A Life Experience As No Other: Dare to Seize the Day Together", published by Fulton Books, depicts our life on the road and mountains until the beginning of 2017. It has developed 'exponentially' since then.

Feature: Slovakia combination: Koprovsky Peak and Sedlo pod Ostrvou: 'Life from both sides' in Slovakia.


Situated in the High Tatras, these two hikes, the tough climb to the peak of Koprovsky, with the more gentle and lesser hike to the mountain above Sedlo pod Ostrvou and lake, give one opportunity to gain perspective from opposite sides. Tough but gorgeous terrain.



In the background, Koprovsky Peak, Slovakia, a tough one bordering Poland. (Photo taken 1,800 feet above commencement.)
