Join Devin and Mike, a father-son duo hiking the great long trails of Europe. Each episode takes a look at at a single day on the trail — with all the highs, lows, stupid moments and semi-profound insights two amateur hikers can provide. 

In this episode, we bring you to where it all began: at the foot of the French Alps on the first day of the Tour of Mont Blanc. We talk about the highs and lows of the first day on a trail, the joys of a cold beer at the end of a long hike, and ask the most important question of all: why the hell are we doing this?

For more from our hiking trio, follow us on Facebook , Instagram and coming soon - videos on our YouTube channel. Or subscribe to our Substack channel (The Long Ways) or newsletter on our website for the stories behind the trail.

Coming soon - an AMA feature where you can ask us almost anything about our hiking adventures. Watch for an announcement on our social channels.
