Overnight Hiking
Overnight hiking trips come in all sizes. A quick trip with just one overnight stay means less time and demands less camping and hiking gear than a week’s stay in the woods. A week’s worth of nights out in the woods means different gear and demands more planning than a week’s stay at a well-developed campground. Whatever the plan for your overnight hiking trip there are important pieces of equipment and gear you need to have along. Listed below are some suggestions.
First is to get a good backpack. Next would be to take backpacking sleeping bags. After a long day on the trail and with another day of hiking ahead, you want something good enough and big enough to get you a good night’s sleep. Rest and recovery become important on an overnight hiking trip. Don’t forget to pick the right footwear to wear because you can’t hike if you can’t walk!
