About this listen
In this episode of Shawn & Mike Take a Hike, we’re taking a step back from multi-day backpacking and focusing on the simple joy of the day hike. Perfect for beginners, weekend warriors, or anyone short on time, day hiking is one of the easiest ways to get out into nature without the full commitment of an overnight trip.
We’ll break down why day hikes are the ideal starting point for those new to hiking, how to plan a day hike that fits your fitness level, what to pack for safety and comfort, and how to use day hiking as a way to test gear and build skills for future backpacking adventures. We’ll also talk about the mental and physical health benefits of day hiking, and why a few hours on the trail can do wonders for your mood.
Whether you’re just starting out or looking for a low-pressure way to reconnect with nature, this episode is full of practical tips to help you make the most of your time outside—without needing to carry everything you own on your back.
