Category: Let’s Go Outside

When was the last time you went hiking? Slipping on some squashy socks and then wearing hefty boots to go and walk a trail is one of the most fun things that you can do – and you might not believe that! It doesn’t matter what the weather is: what do they say? There is no bad weather, only a bad outfit! 

You can dress up in waterproofs and warm clothes and stomp through the rain, or you can make sure that you are equipped for sunshine and head to the beach. A hike is a hike, and if you want to start getting out there, you can equip yourself with your TSO and sleeping bag and make it more than a hike. Turning a hike into a camping trip isn’t the right flavor for everyone, but if it’s for you you’re going to stop limiting yourself when you go outdoors. Here are five excellent reasons that you should go hiking, let’s take a look!

1. For your health. There really is no better medicine than getting outside into the fresh air and breathing it in. You’re going to escape the ordinary and make your life feel extraordinary when you go camping, and you want to do more than explore beautiful settings. You want to get and feel fitter, and hiking is going to build your fitness and your stamina. 
2. For exploration. When you choose to go hiking, you’re going to be able to explore new places and go in new directions you might not have considered before. You don’t even have to hike locally; get on a plane and find somewhere abroad! Machu Picchu didn’t discover itself, you know! You’re going to make so many memories when you explore new regions, so why not go and make them?
3. For the challenge. It takes a lot out of your body to hike, but it’s the kind of burning challenge you want to take because of how it makes you feel. You definitely need to have the right gear when you get going, though. You have to set goals and try new things, and challenges can be found in hiking that can literally change the way that you move and think.
4. For nature. If you work in the city and live in the suburbs, then being in nature is going to make a big difference to you and your health. You’re going to explore trees and florals, and you’re going to see that everything in nature is new and different. You won’t be able to pull yourself away from those sunsets, though, so we guess that’s the one warning that you need!
5. For education. Hiking is going to teach you so much about the landscape and about yourself. Whether you are visiting a new place that has different cultures, or you are going to meet new oceans, then you need to think about what you could possibly learn while you are out there and exploring. Believe us when we say it’s a lot!
