7 MISTAKES or HELP for BEGINNER HIKERS | Start your First Hike with this Video!

In this video we are going to share 7 common mistakes that most beginner hikers and backpackers make when they are just starting out and our tips and advice on how to avoid them. We have been practicing hiking and backpacking since 2017 so for around 6 years now. And we did come a long way full of obstacles and struggles when being completely unexperienced in the field of camping and hiking and committing lots of mistakes. We will discuss topics like packing a backpack, studying the trail map, stealth camping, and gear essentials. We hope this video will be helpful and encouraging for all our fellow beginner hikers out there!

We are a couple who once fell in love with mountains and couldn't get back. So we decided to follow our heart and move from a big city to a small village to be able to do what we love and to create this content. Our goal is to promote the healthy lifestyle, to motivate people to travel more and care for nature around. We are passionate walkers who love hiking, trekking and camping. We offer the detailed information of our hikes and routes, including the map and all the directions, so that you can repeat it if you'd like to.

We choose walking over driving and other types of transportation whenever we can because we learnt that this way we see so much more and can explore and feel the place better. Walking is an excellent activity that has so many benefits to your health and requires no special equipment or practice, so we encourage you to get the most out of it and get out walking.

We speak English, Spanish, French and Russian, so don't hesitate to address to us in your native language.

thanks for the information and the effort you guys put in this, im sure so many are going to find this video helpful. i myself learnt (the hard way) that comfort while camping is very important to get a good sleep and recover fully for the next day! greetings from morocco

Glad to see you back - I have re-subscribed .
Another area for someone starting out, is to look for used gear. You can end up getting some fairly high quality stuff for a decent price. But do your research so you know what you are buying.
But your'e right, start off with day hikes, take very little, and figure out what you actually need, instead of what you think you need.
Or try tagging along with someone more experienced, and see how they do things.

I got my trekking gear in decathlon recently and a big 70 liter backpack and went on my first camping adventure as a start.
One mistake I made was to get a sleeping pad too short and had a rough night of sleep. Im 1.78 m and the sleeping pad I bought 1.80 so my feet and arms were always going out making it unconfortable.

So now I bought a new 1.95 m sleeping pad (also rated 3.3 R value so I can use it all year long) and once I get enough free days from work im gonna go camp again and hope for a better experience.

Im sure each time Im gonna learn something new to improve the experience

Really like your videos.
Can you make one explaining the difference between hiking and backpacking?
Thanks in advance

Идея выпуска про снаряжение для начинающего хайкера это очень хорошая идея. Придумайте минимальный набор дешёвого, но относительно нормального снаряжения для первых двухдневных походов. Скорее всего это будет ассортимент продукции брендов Quechua, Forclaz, Naturehike. Что надо купить человеку который решил открыть для себя походы по природе. 👍
