Mountaineering/hiking is a way of life where the main goal is to stay and enjoy nature. Many people go into nature for new challenges, research, discoveries, hiking and socializing. The basic mountaineering equipment is a backpack, mountaineering boots and a jacket. We can hike in nature, in mountainous and rural areas, on marked as well as unmarked trails. We can be in the mountains for one day, two, and sometimes even stay a few days longer and spend the night there. Apart from the equipment needed for being in nature, for some longer and more demanding hiking tours, you also need good fitness and good physical preparation. Hiking and being in the mountains mean having experience and possessing knowledge!
