The Great Alone : Walking the Pacific Crest Trail

Time is precious. The world is waiting.

Rediscover yourself. The Great Alone is the epic adventure of a relatable explorer.

Why does a 44-year-old father leave his family for six months to walk 4,286 km across America on the Pacific Crest Trail? What effect does it have on his marriage? on his children? and on himself? Following his intuition, Tim Voors decided to embark on a life-changing hike, feeling alive, being afraid, pushing through pain, confronting emptiness and starting a passionate romance with the wilderness.

Tim Voors takes us through the physical, mental and spiritual journey he experienced on this epic hike. Climb into his backpack as he takes you through deserts, mountains, forests and raging rivers, where he forges magical friendships, rediscovers who he used to be, and implements those lessons on returning home.

The story is highly inspiring and encouraging, full of self-discovery experiences, acceptance of one's faults and new ideas, an encouragement to go out and explore, take care of the self and loved ones in a slightly different way... Lovely!
