When planning a hiking trip, it’s essential to have the right resources at your fingertips. Whether you’re a seasoned hiker or a beginner, there are numerous resources available to help you make the most of your adventure.
One of the best resources for safe hiking is a good guidebook, online forum such as facebook groups, and IRL community of hikers.
Apps like Komoot are another great resource for hikers. There are numerous apps available that provide trail maps, GPS tracking, and weather updates.
Some apps even include interactive features like photos and reviews from other hikers on the world’s best hikes.
I even built a custom hiking time calculator to help you plan.
