Timothy Larsen

Thru-hiker, adventurer, restarter

Tim comes from South Africa and has always been thrilled by adventure. He started with hiking, then switched to trail running and mountain biking before coming back to hiking – this time as a thru-hiker.

After a few difficult months, he took the spontaneous decision to spend his savings on a one-way flight to Georgia and embarked on the 1,500 km long Transcaucasian Trail. He finished the trail three months later – and thereby kindled his desire to experience even more adventure, while letting other people share this experience. Over the coming months, Tim is planning to set off on one of the longest thru-hikes in the world, sharing his experiences and encouraging others to also set off on trails.
