Hiking up a mountain<\/a> is a fantastic exercise of physical ability, mental strength and patience\u00a0- for whoever is keeping you company along the way especially.<\/p>

Journeys up a mountain often require a lot of cardio and leg strength\u00a0<\/a>- always a plus to tone your butt! However, beyond its physical benefits, you'd be surprised at how emotionally and mentally gratifying a hike can be.<\/p>

A mountain-climbing trip can often be a great way to clear your mind<\/a> and take a complete pause from life. As you get focus on and get distracted with making it to the peak, your everyday problems may weigh a little less heavier and - who knows - even disappear?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>

Lucky for us, Southeast Asia is brimming with scenic mountainous spots perfect for hikers of varying abilities.<\/a> One thing they all share in common however is the gorgeous views from the top. We've collected our favourite mountain summits in Southeast Asia of varying difficulties<\/strong>\u00a0for you to find the perfect summit for you - check them out above!<\/p>
