About

Hi, I’m Justyn Perry, the traveller behind Billy Goat Hiker. The site began in the Canadian Rockies, where a goal to hike one mountain every weekend became a lasting love of trails, honest trip notes and the details that make an adventure worth remembering.

Now Billy Goat Hiker is heading to Europe. I’ll be sharing first-hand stories and practical guides covering local food, memorable things to do, accommodation, train travel and the choices that shape a great itinerary.

Expect a thoughtful mix of inspiration and useful detail: what worked, what didn’t, what it cost and what I’d recommend to another traveller.

For the hiking side of the journey, you can also browse the gear I use.
