Editorial charter · Escapade Éditions
The reference
world Top 100.
We surveyed 3,568 leads, documented and evaluated 299 experiences, then selected the 100 worth travelling for. This charter sets the standard behind the ranking.
Select experiences worth travelling for.
We rank neither difficulty nor popularity. A place is earned through story, distinctiveness, intensity, travel value and quality of evidence.
Document every place in the ranking.
Every decisive claim is connected to a checked source. Readers can find the facts supporting the story, score and rank.
Own the editorial judgement.
Facts establish the frame. Score and rank are confident editorial decisions made with the same method for all 299 evaluated experiences.
Revise to remain the reference.
A new source strengthens the ranking: we review the fact, evidence level, score and rank, then publish the correction in the next edition.
Guarantee ranking independence.
No payment, partnership, invitation or benefit guarantees an entry or rank. Escapade Éditions alone decides the selection.
Publish with respect for rights.
Texts and photographs are published with a clear chain of rights. A source documents a fact; it never automatically permits reuse of its content.
On the mountain
A ranking for choosing a journey, not navigating a route.
Before every outing, recheck opening, access, weather, equipment and difficulty with the operator or a current route guide.
