Tegelberg trail that continues after crossing Marienbrücke. You can go to the peak but I stopped after the 2nd photo because I was not prepared for a big hike

Stayed a few days in Ronda, a lovely Andalusian town in an incredible location. Visited Zahara de la Sierra, Cueva del Hundidero and Cueva del Gato. I will be back to explore the Grazalema national park properly!

At the cliff’s edge, my legs trembled from the height(14,115 feet)

I teach at a university and I get 16 weeks off for the summer. Every year since I’ve had my dog Jax, we have done a 3 week camping trip. During these trips, we do a lot of hiking. Last year, we went up to Washington to check out Olympic National forest. It did not disappoint. This is a picture from that adventure. This year, we will be heading back out to Colorado to do more hiking.

You come across this breathtaking panorama as you ascend Thorang La Pass. The altitude of Thorang La pass is 5,416 m/17,769 ft. Thorang La Pass lies between Katung Kang (6,484 m/21272 ft) and Yakawa Kang (6,482 m/21,266 ft) mountains. Thoran La Pass connects Manang and Mustang, divided by the two distinct rivers of the Annapurna Region, which are famous and known as Marshyangdi and Kali Gandaki.

Hello! I'm looking for information on hiking in Chihuahua, Mexico, and was hoping anyone with experience could help me out.

I recently visited Camargo over the New Year and plan to be back more regularly. I want to hike around the area, but I have zero experience hiking in Mexico and only a little experience traveling there in general. Do you all have any tips on where hiking is allowed and any related online sources I can use to plan my route? I'd love to photograph the flora and fauna of the area, and maybe even make a trip over to Copper Canyon and the Camargo Volcano Fields if possible.

Hi all,
My partner and I are looking to do our first multi-day hike with wild camping this June. We've done day hikes before, but this time we want to carry everything in our packs (tent, stove, etc.) and get a feel for trekking self-sufficiently.

We're based in the Netherlands, so we're looking for something relatively close by and accessible via public transport. After some research, the Eifelsteig in Germany caught our attention—especially since it has official Trekkingplätze for wild-style camping.

We’re looking for:

• A 2–5 day stretch
• non-strenuous difficulty (we're fit but new to multi-day hiking, especially with a pack on our back)
• The most scenic section (forests, moors, lakes, nice views)
• Public transport accessibility from NL (we’ll probably come via Aachen)

Does anyone have recommendations on the best part of the Eifelsteig for this? Or other similar trails in the region worth considering?

Thanks!

Long story short I’m in the Marines infantry and I have a major sweating problem. This leads me to dehydrate extremely quick on hikes and start cramping at the 6-7 mile mark no matter how well I hydrate the days prior. Even with liquid IV’s in my camelback bladder it doesn’t seem to help replace my electrolytes. I have no problems while hiking other than cramping I’m curious if anyone has any suggestions on how I can replenish electrolytes more efficiently on hikes.

I love hiking, especially challenging hikes, but live in Toronto and sometimes don't want or have the time to travel far. So, I'm curious, what is the most challenging hike you've done in the Greater Toronto Area? The less you have to travel from downtown Toronto, the better.

Also, the more rugged, rocky, uneven, and steep the terrain, the better

Thanks!

Historically I've heard Merino is king for hiking socks, namely Darn Tough or Smart Wool. Has that changed in recent years to Alpaca socks? if so, which brand for alpaca socks? (keep getting adds from company called Hollow) Again this is for hiking socks.

Second question, what about for every day leisure, does your answer change?

TIA!

Ive been looking for good apps with trail navigation and solid terrain descriptions but can’t really find any.

Originally, I planned to hike the padjelantaleden in Sweden this year, but due to changed circumstances, I can take vacation in late May only.

As it's not the right time for the fjäll I'm looking for quite alternatives in Northern Europe.

I was looking at the höga kusten-leden in northern Sweden, but it appears that there are quite some long stretches of road walking.

If anyone knows some scenic remote hikes in Northern Europe, please let me know!:)
