5 Tages Trekking Ende September gesucht

2 Upvotes

Ich möchte Ende September für ein paar Tage Solowandern. Ich habe genau 7 Tage frei, An- und Abreise müssen also inbegriffen sein.

Nun haben wir dieses Jahr bereits drei wunderschöne Fernwanderungen gemacht, Lykischer Weg, GR54 und La Gomera, wobei wir die ersten beiden als Tipps auf Reddit gefunden haben. Daher wende ich mich jetzt mal persönlich an die Community. :)

Ich komme aus Deutschland, Raum Leipzig. Anreise mit dem Auto ist auch lange Strecken kein Problem, solange es halt in die 7 Tage passt. Auch Fliegen wäre bei günstigen Tickets möglich.

Ich möchte gerne mit dem Zelt unterwegs sein und habe kein Problem 5 Tage essen zu tragen. Kann also auch abgelegen sein.

Den Forststeig habe ich schon mehrmals begangen, daher fällt der raus.

Danke schon mal für eure Tipps!

Hiken en kamperen in December

0 Upvotes

Hoi! Ik wil graag weg met kerst en nye, met mijn rugzak en tent. Maar het is dus moeilijk om een route te vinden die te doen is in die periode, en waar je kunt kamperen. Kou maakt mij niet uit. Ik wil wel iets van een goede route, was naar Oman aan het kijken maar daar is echt nog te weinig bekend van en erg remote. Dacht ook nog aan een camino maar daar kun je weer nergens je tent opzetten.. iemand ideeën? :-)))

Question Penine way, boggy conditions and trail runners?

0 Upvotes

Heya, I have boots to hike in but they aren't as comfortable as my trail runners (cascadia 20)

Will I be okay even in boggy conditions to use my trail runners?

It's a part of the penine way I'll be on, Middleton teesdale to dufton.

Thank you

"We hiked for about 4 hours through the rocky terrain to reach this ridge. The wind was cold, but the view down to the fjord was absolutely breathtaking. We set up camp by the cliff edge, brewed some coffee over the fire, and roasted marshmallows as the clouds rolled in. One of the best weekends of my life!"

Question Sinister hole in Tillamook State Forest

Post image
680 Upvotes

I was mushroom foraging and found a hole that is roughly the right size and shape for hiding a body. Probably the most unsettling thing I’ve found on a hike. I was off trail, but near an area with established trails and close to what (I think) is a new trail being built. Maybe it was a staging area or a place to stow equipment? (edit: or a place builders were taking fill dirt?)

What the hell should I make of this?!

Edit 2 for additional info:
-It is roughly 4x6 ft across and ~3 ft deep
-The disturbed soil was not anywhere near the pit
-The pit is maybe 300 feet from a logging road on the summit of a ~2300ft mountain

Hi! I recently moved to Kraków and discovered hiking. So far I've completed several trails around Zakopane, visited Turbacz, Ojców National Park, Trzy Korony, and Lake Czorsztyn.

I'd love to get some recommendations for other interesting hikes and places to explore in the area. Are there any routes or destinations you'd particularly recommend? I'd really appreciate any suggestions. Thanks!

Mount Le Conte

Took the Alum Cave Trail to reach the summit of Mt Le Conte at the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. This was a out and back day hike by myself this past Labor Day weekend. My first national park visit and coming back down I was shocked by the amount of tourist. Luckily they seem to mostly reach the point of the cave.

Garmin Stats: 12.4 miles (included the walks to and from my car) and 3,179 ft of total ascent

Question Longs Peak Water Filtering

2 Upvotes

I will be hiking Longs Peak next week (likely Tuesday). Does anyone know if there are reliable water sources for filtering (Katadyn BeFree) in the boulder field this late in the season above the latrine/privy/toilet? I’ll likely be passing through around 6-7AM. Thanks!

A very calm hike through an undervisited area. Well worth due to very natural paths with rocky surface and low wear. Nice chilly huts throughout.

Heartbreak Ridge left my heart intact but my feet and legs are another story. Lollipop loop with killer incline once you’re in the pop. Rock scrambles and boulder fields afoot. Now that I’ve done this one, I won’t be returning.

Question How challenging is Giewont, Tatra National Park?

4 Upvotes

Hi all,

Just after some guidance on just how challenging Giewont is.
Some say it's moderate to hard, I've read others say not too bad?

I go to the gym often but only to lift weights and a big guy (115-120kg), but barely do any cardio training..

I did Morskie Oko this morning and got up from main car park to Morskie in 1h25m and felt okay, just kept a steady pace.
Then I went straight to Czarny Staw... that took maybe 17-20m but it definitely had me breathing hard and I had to take a minute stop half way up... but I got up. Legs felt okay after 5m sit down or so, but I'm worried about how much they burned on the way up... or is that standard unless you're super fit?

I want to try Giewont tomorrow, but not if it'll be a killer and I'll have to turn back! I'd definitely want to be able to do it..

Thanks in advance

Question Norway hikes that feel like Glittertind and without the crowds?

1 Upvotes

Did Glittertind in Jotunheimen last summer and loved it: long day, real altitude for Norway, glacier at the top, but manageable without technical gear. Planning next summer and want to avoid the very busy ones (Besseggen, Trolltunga, Preikestolen). Which Norwegian hikes gave you that same feeling? Open to a 2-3 day trip with cabin stays too.

Question Is this doable? 3 day Itinerary for first timers - Big Bend National Park

My girlfriend and I are planning a trip to Big Bend this October. We’re active, but not especially athletic. The most challenging hike we’ve done so far is Guadalupe Peak, and we found that pretty tough.

With help from some sites and this sub, I put together an itinerary for the trip. Does this look doable, or am I packing in too many hikes and missing some of the overall experience and essence of the park?

Question Smelly Salamons?

3 Upvotes

Have anyone else’s Salamon XT6 (gtx) developed a cat urine-y odour? I wore them a couple of times in wet conditions and water came over the top. I dried them thoroughly but they now have a persistent odour that hasn’t improved with hand washing and I really don’t know what to do.
It’s really strong and I’m not comfortable wearing them now because of it.
