Hiking as a Great Way of Travelling

Hiking must be a very popular mean of travelling, but not as popular as abroad. Talking about traveling on foot, I find a walking tour the cheapest method of traveling. However, in the 21 century people appear too lazy to travel on foot. In travelling on foot, you must enjoy leaving the dull broad highway and going along little winding lanes where cars can't go. But, comfortable clothes might be worth choosing in order to have a successful trip.

Having a walking tour, I’d rather change the stylish garments, fitting me as a glove, and the trendiest footwear, complementing my gorgeous outfit, into the plain clothes such as cotton T-shirts and shorts. I expect them to suit this occasion perfectly. Overcoming the different obstacles, I don’t mind putting the flannel sports suit on, sewn from natural materials, as I consider high-quality cloth for a suit important to make it keep shape. Also leather boots or rubber thongs are sure to complete your look. Having put them on, you aren’t afraid of facing with the dirt and dampness, because they must be reliable enough to wear for years without getting worn out. When it happens to be cold, my plan must be to wear a tweed overcoat with well-made fur high boots. I find them suitable enough to walk in around the countryside, especially in winter. Taking mountain paths through the heather or wandering by side of quiet lakes and through the shades of woods, you must have a great chance of seeing the real country, the wild flowers, the young birds in their nests and the deer in the forest.

If you feel like being in spots where no man’s foot has stepped before you, hiking must become to you excellent. Moreover, you had better put the special protective articles of clothing on, as you may happen to have unimaginable hardships. For example, it may be drowning in a swamp or having a turn in the weather. So, I approve of your wearing a good pair of trainers or moccasins, going well with a baggy sweatshirt and ready-made trousers, during your hiking instead of lacquered boots with the beautifully cut dress, made of modern artificial textiles. I think off-the-peg clothes considerably cheaper than to make them to measure. Of course, being in such an uninviting-looking outfit, you don’t have an opportunity of producing a pleasing effect. However, it must be convenient enough to travel on foot.

If you are fond of experiencing to the present moment with your eyes, ears and the whole of your body, not driving at breakneck speed, a walking tour seems a becoming method of travelling for you. Feeling the quietness and calm of nature, you may live constantly in the present. Furthermore, most people turn out to take pleasure in seeing the leaves falling from the trees, feeling the sun shining and hearing the birds singing. The present is liable to be meaningful. For this trip, the silk blouse and really-first class corduroy skirt, flattering your qualities with suede high-heels to match must be too uncomfortable to wear for hiking. It must be better to put on some cotton garments and tennis or low-heeled shoes. Besides, a lively-coloured baseball cap must brighten up your quite decent outfit and make it more interesting. And a tempting rucksack is likely to add taste and style. So, I insist on wearing casual, cosy peaces of clothing and footwear for hiking.

Making a trip on foot, you should be anxious about carrying the entire luggage. Packing the luggage, you need to take a compass, a map and first-aid equipment, even the most experienced traveler can easily lose the way in the vast uninhabited places. It’s necessary to inform someone at your point of departure.

At the end of your journey, it must be pleasant enough for you to feel a delicious physical weariness. I suppose that sound satisfying sleep to be the just reward of all true travellers. As for me, I like travelling relaxing, not tiring.
