I was avid in my youth, did the AT in the 80's and have many fond memories hiking. I have not been hiking as I think of hiking in many years, I have been for walks.
I LOVE nature and wilderness, and having spent much of my life in it, have no illusions it loves me in return.

What's the difference between a hike and a walk?

I enjoy camping and I spend my days at the campground hiking trails every day before noon and again after 4pm. I used to hike 10-15 miles a day camping now down to just 2-3 miles per day (thus proving that age is more than just a number). I do take a walk every day in my neighborhood.

I don't hike, but that's only because nobody's found a way to do so while using a parasol. I'm one of those people who burns bright red in about five minutes, even with sunscreen. If I cover up with clothing, I overheat. Sad, really, because I like the outdoors.

I love to hike, but there's no one who wants to go with me.

So, I love hiking, but I don't have much opportunity to do it right now what with college

Is there an option for, 'I love to hike but I live in boring, flat Ohio so my options are limited'? That's the option I need. Hiking in New Zealand is the most amazing experience I've had, though. 10/10 Would recommend.

I love hiking to high alpine lakes surrounded by white glaciers and jagged mountain peaks. After dark, I look up and feel awed by the glowing Milky Way and billions of sparkling stars.

After graduating from the University of Michigan at age 21, I moved to Washington State to climb mountains and stayed. I fell in love with hiking and backpacking. Hiking is an uplifting and transcendent experience for me. I feel grounded and centered high in the mountains.

In 2017, I set a personal record by hiking 326 miles with over 62,200 feet of elevation gain. My women’s hiking group has boiled down to three strong hikers. We hike each Tuesday. In the winter, we keep going on snowshoes and micro-spikes. “Don’t slog in the bog; get high on the ridges!” has been my hiking motto since age 21.

I absolutely love to hike. I want to hike the APPALACHIAN TRAIL one more time. I want to hike the whole trail once more. I just need a group that has the time to go along.

Anyone hiking in the Nashville area? Would love an atheist hiking group.

I enjoy hiking and love short trip backpacking!! So peaceful and a great reconnect with nature for me!!

Does walking all over NYC count?

Love hiking! I hike at least once a month. Usually do some challanging and cool destination. Have been on many beautiful and amazing hikes. Last weekend I did 9.5 miles (out and Back) to Potato Chip Rock a.k.a. Mt Woodson. My most memorable was hitting 13,125ft in attempting to climb Mt Whitney.

Wish there were more inspiring hiking areas near my home...I live in Idaho so there are some magnificent ones close by a short drive away but for me I want to go from doorstep to nature.

In 2017. I broke a personal record by hiking 326 miles with over 63,200 feet of elevation gain (and loss).

Spectacular mountain vistas, azure alpine lakes, snowmelt-swollen, roiling creeks and gorgeous wildflowers.

Mountains are my sanctuary. I feel most grounded and centered high in the mountains.

My one New Years resolution was to visit at least one State or National park a month.

Haven't had the tiime or SO that would do it with me... but I love when In can and look forward to it in the near future....

Honestly, it's less than once a week more like once in a while, but I love the adventure anytime I go.

I do actually, and I also love kayaking, canoeing, fishing, camping, and reading, but I work 12 hour days, so unless you consider two - four mile walks near home as hiking; I do it less often than any of your options.

i chose at least 3 times a week, because when i was healthy thats how it was. now i have 2 take it a bit easier, but since i hope 2 get there again soon, this is what i chose lol

I love hiking. Have done many, but not recently so your poll is inaccurate for me. Would love to do more!

I love to hike when I can... I don't get to hike as often as I used to... I'd like to go on a hike with you!

Breathing the air bring so much strength.

At least every 2nd day, though as often as not at night. Days can be too hot.

I like to hike up my leg.
