I’m a city girl, so my first time hiking i admit, i was a little scared and skeptical of the whole thing. I thought i was going to be beyond bored not to mention spazze out over any encounters with insects. But in the name of growing through experiences & love i tried it. And i was shocked i tell you. I had enjoyed it! Fast forward a few years later, and now i go hiking all the time. Some people even call me dare i say it... outdoorsy.
So here are my top 5 reasons you should "take a hike"
When you go hiking, no matter the difficulty of the trail, there is something thrilling about being out in the wilderness with nothing but you and your crew
It's an obvious but needs to be stated none the less. Hiking is an amazing work out. The day after a hike my leg and glute muscles are beyond sore. It's a great way to tighten the booty gals.
Theirs always something beautiful to see that keeps you trekking a little farther a little harder.
Getting touch with your inner self is by far my favorite reason to go hiking. Their's a sense of peace and connection with nature that cant be duplicated while hiking. It's a great way to away from the every day hustle and get in tune with yourself.
Hiking culture is definitely unique. The comradeship you make while hiking is pretty awesome and nobody but another hiker can relate to the thrill of accomplishing that rough trail ya almost didn't think you were going to finish.
