Hiking is an excellent way to get an aerobic workout, build muscle, and lose weight while also enjoying fresh air and the great outdoors. And if you hike regularly, you may want to consider adopting a sports nutrition diet to keep up optimum energy levels for your hikes.

The Ultimate Hiking Guide - Few activities provide anywhere near as much benefit for people as hiking. Hiking and backpacking can improve one's life mentally, physically, and spiritually. The more of an active, outdoor lifestyle one leads, the happier and healthier they tend to be.

Don't forget to pack some freeze dried food and a camp stove if you plan to stop for a meal on your hike, or are backpacking overnight.

Even on a short hike, the weather may change abruptly, so be sure to bring layers of clothing. Hoodies are a great first layer when a chill starts to set in!
