What is Hikers World Bible?
Hikers World Bible is an independent, one-person project born from a passion for hiking, nature, photography, and visual documentation. Originally created in the Swiss Alps in 2024, the project has evolved beyond its alpine roots into a broader reference platform dedicated to hiking and mountain exploration.
What is Hikers World Bible mission?
The mission of Hikers World Bible is to provide clear, structured, and practical information for hikers — from route research and regional guides to safety considerations, equipment, and preparation. All content is built on real-world experience and field knowledge, with a strong focus on accuracy, usability, and reliability.
At this stage, the platform is centered on technical and informational content designed to help hikers plan and understand their routes more effectively. The emphasis is on guidance rather than storytelling, offering hikers a solid foundation for informed and responsible exploration.
Who is the person behind Hikers World Bible?
Hikers World Bible is an independent project created by Gerson Paulo. By profession, he works in the metallurgical industry, but outside of work his time is divided between managing the Hikers World Bible platform and exploring the mountains.
The mountains are where all his passions come together: exploring nature, hiking, photography, video, and storytelling. What started as a personal escape quickly became a structured project focused on sharing real, experience-based knowledge with the hiking community.
Based in the Alps, with a strong focus on Switzerland, Gerson builds every piece of content from direct field experience, combining practical hiking insights with visual storytelling. His ultimate goal is to one day live entirely from this lifestyle — exploring the mountains and creating meaningful content that inspires and helps others do the same, safely and responsibly.
