I notice that for 99% of the places we go, if we just hike 10 minutes from the ‘touristic entrypoint’, places are deserted unless you can get there by car. Even in extremely densely packed places like Hong Kong or tourist places where in the weekend many people go walking; if you just go a bit further, there is no one for hours. You do not need to go mountaineering for that. A lot of people like nature but abhor walking, so in places like in Spain where I go often you see hundreds of tourists on the picnic place deep in the forest on the mountain you can drive to, but, again, 10 minutes walk on a solid nice path which is forbidden for cars, you will find no people at all. Even or maybe especially in high season (walking in heat seems even worse for people; I love it).
