Bucket List of Trails

My wife took a business trip last week to the Canadian Rockies, including Banff National Park.  She had responsibilities, so it wasn't a pleasure cruise, but the hiking and sightseeing opportunities in Banff made me jealous.

I suppose it was my Western-Canada envy that made me delve into the National Geographic website and its lists of fabulous hikes.  I constructed this fantasy list of trails I'd like to take, and I post it here for my convenient reference.  Criteria: I was looking for mostly day hikes, without any special skill required: no ice, no rock climbing, no caves, no guides, no orienteering.  I have stuck to North America and the British Isles, which seem more feasible than more far-flung continents.
