Tips on hiking

01.

Depending on who you ask

hiking is a great way to exercise outdoors while enjoying nature. But to make the most of it, it’s important to be prepared and follow some simple rules.

02.

Be prepared, choose

appropriate and comfortable clothing and footwear - don’t forget a windbreaker, just in case the weather makes a turn for the worse. Always bring lots of water, snacks, and a basic first aid kit.

03.

It’s always a good idea

to go with one or more hiking buddies. Don’t forget to tell your close ones when and where you are going, as well as when you plan on coming back. This might be crucial in case something happens to you.

Finally,

be mindful

of your surroundings, and leave them the same way you found them by practicing the “Leave No Trace” approach. Keep the hiking trails and nature you see as pristine and beautiful as it was before you, so others can enjoy it too!
