What's the Difference Between Hiking and Trekking?

[@MUSABBPT]

My first trekking info video view. My wife used to say we must go trekking etc. Me being a lawyer needs to first define the word then ascertain rules then do. Great start you have given us uncle.happy journeys

[@villagraciajennierose5246]

[@kay903]

[@bisoudange]

It's been 2 years since I have been to my home away from home- the mountains. It really makes me wanna go back thier and live my best life

[@lady.eidolon]

Glad I found this video, I had the definition of both, backwards. Very big difference!

[@마프의등산이야기]

Hi Alpenwild. Wow that hiking video is great. I am a Korean elementary school student KZbinr. I will come to play often. Please upload a lot of good videos.

[@SifaRosie]

Thanks for sharing.. gbu

[@IdRatherBeHiking]

I'm starting to lean towards doing treks as trail runs. Although a little more risky regarding the lack of survival gear... tent etc you make up with speed and significantly reduced weight load on the body.

[@nellyraganit8408]

thanks.. nice video

[@faatak1507]

I like it. Keep up the good work

[@noureddinetaoussi1016]

I liked the quiz idea, it helps you understand even more. Ps:i scored 100% 😁✌️

[@NickandRachel]

Beautiful!

[@BackpackerScience]

Everything below 20miles was supposed to be stralling my parents said so we never went hiking on Sundays only stralling. We only went hiking on holidays totally the same but in an other country xD.

[@DanOutdoorsUK]

I'm definitely a trekker, I did the TMB in 2019 and it was amazing. Last year I wanted to do GR20 but had to cancel sadly. This year I'm staying UK based and doing the Snowdonia slate trail in a few weeks. Looking forward if like to do EBC and Tahoe rim trail soon

[@antoniescargo1529]

Do not use the word "trekker" in the Netherlands. 😂😅

[@GODISMYSTERIOUS]

1. Trekking 2. Hiking 3. Trekking 4. Hiking

[@georgehunter8996]

Hi, please when can I get a reply from you.

[@nishantngp1]

Nice explanation, Thank you

[@Alpenwild]

Thanks for watching and thank you for your kind words. See you on the trail!

[@RodinAustin]

I only scored 75% on the quiz (missed the Jungfrau) so seems I need to come back for a refresher. See you in July!

[@Alpenwild]

That's great! We had to throw a trick question in there, but better take a refresher course for good measure. We'll see you in class!

[@finneganjaime1669]

a trick: you can watch series on flixzone. I've been using them for watching loads of movies recently.

[@terrellantonio5319]

@Finnegan Jaime yup, have been using Flixzone} for months myself :D

[@theanimesnake3362]

We're so glad it helped! Thanks for watching.

[@newslinkswat]

Enjoy the natural scenery

[@dreamchaserstraveldiaries]

Did a hiking trip in Nesselwang with my friends ---- amazing experience.

[@Channel-ov4kz]

Interesting differentiation, and a good way to approach it, too.

[@thislifesadventures.]

GREAT VIDEO!

[@Alpenwild]

Thanks for watching!

[@thislifesadventures.]

@@Alpenwild thank you for the informative video.

[@hariommehta3097]

Does Trekking involve activities like rappelling, river crossing, rock climbing?

[@Alpenwild]

Generally, not. Those kinds of activities would push trekkers more into the climbing and adventure sports area. They would also require protection, such as ropes, helmets, life vests, etc.

[@rigzinwangyal1952]

I am from Upper Mustang which is also known as the Hidden Kingdom of Lo tribe. The place is famous for trekking and I also love to trek in the Himalayas. Check out the places that I had trekked till. #hwwtreks

[@Alpenwild]

We'll have to add that to our list!

[@mariedel38]

Thanks for this info

[@Alpenwild]

Thank you for watching!

[@axlent123]

Here in the states, we probably do thru hikes, but they might be called trekking elsewhere… though they are on established paths, and even roads, and even often entailing taking “zeroes” off trail, and staying in hostels or hotels… they are long distance treks. So though a thru hike is differentiated by the use of the term “thru”, it looks like it could be also called thru trekking, it seems to me.

[@dds5568]

_good job_

[@GODISMYSTERIOUS]

3-5 miles are done by many ladies for window shopping in the city.

[@jymmygarcia4692]

Thanks man

[@horsemeat1776]

Y'all telling me I've been calling trekking hiking this entire time?? I've been walking for 15 miles every other week just casually and I thought that everybody did it. Apparently not everybody likes to walk for 10 miles straight every other day. 😂

[@joshuamichael4101]

Is trekking is the same term with backpacking, or not?

[@Alpenwild]

Great question--Backpacking differs from trekking in that you’re carrying all your gear and supplies for your entire trip with you on your back. Whereas in trekking, that gear is often carried by pack animals or porters. On all of our small-group guided treks, we’re also shuttling your luggage so you can travel light and worry-free. Backpacking as we know it in the US is rare in the Alps. In Switzerland, backcountry camping is prohibited, but there are hundreds of huts and mountain inns where you can stay, so you don’t have to carry a tent, sleeping bag, food, or camp kitchen-It’s all provided at the huts, along with a hot shower and great mountain views.

[@spotdBS]

I'm a walker, you call it what ever you want.

[@sujithcheeral]

I'm from India,Can I also join with these treks?

[@Alpenwild]

Absolutely! We would love to have you join us!

[@happytrekking]

Thanks for your detailed explanation. I'd better to change my channel name. ㅠ.ㅠ

[@henryhume2485]

Sick video! Love the adventernous of it. If anyone is into similar outdoor adventures you should check out a couple of my recent videos too!

[@Renzeen]

Trekking is much more nicer to stay in tent then staying in the cabins! Get your tent and get out of civilization...it's the best!

[@seonkyukim5935]
