2011 saw Top Backpacking Destinations grow a huge amount, both in content and design. I moved the site from Blogger to WordPress and absolutely love being on it – it was worth the hassle! There’s so much the platform allows you to do, and the sharing tools in particularly have been fantastic in allowing me to build the blog from something that was just a passing hobby this time last year to something that is now well read and, hopefully, has a few happy readers!
Below you can find the 5 most read posts from 2010 for your enjoyment, whether it’s first time around or revisiting one you’ve read before. Hopefully it will get your travelling juices flowing!

You can go to Patagonia on an extensive trekking trip or just for a few days as a stop on your backpacking adventure to see the glaciers. Either way, I can guarantee you won’t leave disappointed as Patagonia is one of those places that gets under your skin and makes you hungry for more. The only problem is deciding where to go next that can live up to it…
