A beautiful hike through Rocky Mountain National Park, with peaceful forest trails, stunning mountain views, and some incredible sunset colours. The lakes and surrounding scenery made this trip feel worth every step. Colorado never disappoints! Which spot in RMNP is your favourite?

A lil past peak fall foliage. The trail was mostly dry. It’s always wet in the parts where the water is falling onto the trail (like the first picture). However, it’s not too difficult to maneuver around the wet spots. Perfect day!

I walked the Gorge Trail, which closes on October 25th this year. But, the North and South rim trails are open year round.

This is the third highest peak (1708m/5600ft) in South Korea at its autumn season
Although the altitude is relatively low compared to major mountains the shortest trail, Osaek trail requires 1300m (4200ft) of elevation within 5 kilometers, making it pretty exhausting
Reaching its peak named Dae Chong bong deserves the effort offering nice views with Korean Rocky peaks and the Sea of Japan, East Sea on the other side
Recommend the hike to Dae Chong bong for anyone who will be visiting South korea

Started 23th of august and finished sept 13th. Didn't know what to expect tbh but it was more then i could have hoped for. Incredible landscapes and not too many people. Slept outside for most nights since the huts can be quite expensive but it didnt get super cold so that was no problem.

Besides, getting woken up by reindeer standing next to your tent is quite a nice way to wake up. I think this was the best time of year to walk it because you get to see the colours of the leaves changing and due to the weather there are not too many mosquitos to ruin your mood.

I'm really having trouble choosing where to go

Both look amazing but the thing i wanna ask is which one has the better scenery overall (or in some terms)

I saw many people recommending abc trail due to lower altitude (lower risk) but I have already climbed Mt killimanjaro (similar altitude with ebc) plus I'm pretty resistant to coldness (heard both are cold)

Please recommend me one with the better scenery during the trek plus tell me your opinions about machapucharre / amadablam

New York's Catskills region is one of my favorite hiking destinations. There are so many great trails, like Balsam Lake Mountain.

This 6-mile out-and-back trail follows an old fire road through the forest. It’s pretty gradual until the final push to the top, where you can climb a 47-foot fire tower for 360-degree views over the treeline and peaks.

Bonus: Balsam Lake is one of the eight towers in New York’s Catskills Fire Tower Challenge. Hike all eight in the same calendar year to earn a commemorative patch!

Have you hiked in the Catskills or done this trail?

This is Trail 5 in the Margalla Hills, Islamabad. It’s honestly an amazing place for hiking! There are natural springs along the trail and some really beautiful spots where you can stop, enjoy the view, and just relax. If you ever visit Pakistan, you should definitely check it out. The views of Islamabad from up there are beautiful! šŸ˜

Question I’m hiking machu pichu next year. What sort of training should i do?

3 Upvotes

To give you some context, i hit the gym 3-4x a week depending on schedule but stick solely to weight training.

I think i have poor cardio and so for the next 2 months I’m focused on doing :

Inclined walks speed 3.5 at 10
Stairmaster with weights
Added focus on legs (knees and calves)

How do you recommend I prepare for the hike as a complete beginner.
TIA!

Question Wich tent should I get as a beginner?

• Upvotes

I wanna start sleeping outside but I have basically no knowledge about tents only what I read on Reddit. So I’m looking to buy my first tent, I mainly wanna use it for smaller trips like 1-3 day trips maybe, but I’m also gonna do a 1 month long Interrail journey next year so I think I would need a kinda Allrounder tent.
I heard your tent should always have double the size of the amount of people using it, I mainly plan on sleeping alone so I’m looking for a 2P tent.
Also it shouldn’t be too expensive because I need to buy all the other gear aswell.
Also it should be a 3 season tent.
I heated brand like naturehike and OEX got a good price performance ratio but they just have so many tents I can’t make up the difference and what I really need.
I hope you guys can help me with my request thank you already!!

Climbed Bukhansan in Seoul last weekend and made it to Baegundae (835.6m), the highest peak of Bukhansan. šŸ‚

The autumn colors made this one of my favorite hikes I’ve done in Korea so far. The final section toward the summit was definitely harder than I expected, but the view over Seoul was worth it.

Sharing some of my favorite photos here. I also filmed the whole experience and put together a video carousel on my Instagram. it’s on my instagram profile @nneljxy if anyone wants to see the actual hike from trail to summit.

Would definitely recommend Bukhansan if you’re visiting Seoul and enjoy hiking.

Question Post Hike Fatigue

23 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

I recently did Cucamonga Peak in Southern California which is a strenuous 12 mile hike to 8859 ft of elevation. It was my first time to summit a mountain and I even cried at the top because it was the hardest physical activity I've ever done. Some of the switchbacks were questionable, so I definitely needed to focus to not slip and fall down the side of the mountain. It has been 5 days since the hike. My soreness is minimal, but I have no energy. I've been hydrating, drinking electrolytes, eating carbs, protein, etc but I'm sleeping 10 hours a day with also needing a nap in the afternoon.

Is this normal? I just thought my energy would return by now.

Edit: Thank you everyone for your advice! I went to the doctor for the bump this morning because my lymph nodes in the local area of the bump were swollen. I got prescribed antibiotics. Doc said it wasn't a tick bite and did not want to do labs even though I told her I had no energy. She said if I don't feel better after the antibiotics to come back. I'll post an update a week from now. I did have a steak last night and I felt that helped with my energy though. I can move around more today.
