I'm a complete beginner and early August I hiked/trekked for 5 days through Denmark. I have questions and need tips.
I've never did any hiking before (not even day trips) but I somehow felt like I truly needed to get out so I solo trekked for 5 days through Denmark. I think it's a comparably easy route (gendarmstien, though I didn't even finished it lol) yet very rough for me. Still I truly loved it.
So how do people organize food and water if buying and/or refilling for 2-3 is not an option? My backpag already weighted 18kg (I weight only 60kg) and that was with ony 2L water. I could only manage to travel arround 12km a day so sometimes I couldn't reach the next city in a day. I had a couple up hiking meals but I eventuellly depleted them and the supermarkets I found didn't have that type of stuff.
Also how do people stay clean and wash their clothes? I mainly used wet papers and bathed in the sea twice but how do people clean their clothes? It takes alot of water to clean clothes and depending on weather drying might not be that easy. I also have long hair 😅
About my backpack weight, my tent weights 2,4kg and my sleeping bag 1,9kg. Is that too much? I really tried to throw everything unnecessary out but couldn't get below that.
Again I really loved it which is why I want to know how I can do thinks better so I have more freedom and make my next trek more pleasant with less headache.
