History of Hiking
The origins of hiking trace back to ancient times, when humans walked long distances for survival—seeking food, water, and shelter.
As civilizations developed, footpaths became vital for trade, exploration, and cultural exchange.
In Europe, hiking as a leisure activity gained popularity in the 18th and 19th centuries, inspired by the Romantic movement’s appreciation for nature’s beauty.
Today, hiking is a beloved pastime worldwide, blending adventure, relaxation, and discovery.
