Multi-day vs multiple short hikes solo in New Zealand
I'm planning to head to New Zealand's South Island during November for my first solo trip for 12 days and trying to focus on some nature and hikes. I'm deciding whether I want to stick to short hikes as I go around the Island or include a multi-day hike.
The issue is that I've never done a multi-day hike before, but would definitely be keen to try, with much thorough research and planning beforehand of course. I know that New Zealand has amazing short day hikes, but I would also love to utilise this opportunity down there for their amazing multi day hikes too. I'm just not sure if I should stick to short hikes for now given my lack of experience + solo.
How was your experience with the short hikes in New Zealand? Or any multi-day hikes in particular you would recommend for a less experienced hiker? Any advice would be appreciated! #activity #camping #hiking source
A gorgeous weekend in Glencoe. We did Jacob's ladder and got the most beautiful views. Getting to the top was so rewarding getting the full view of the three peaks.
This is dumb but I would really like to hike in Moab but I’m nervous about getting turned around and lost. I would like to do a solo trip there but mabye meetup to hike with other people?
I’m trying to build some self esteem/self reliance/confidence type stuff as it’s super low right now…. But I know it can be very dangerous to do it alone. I’ve looked at some travel sites and they list week long hikes in Moab w camping which I’m not wanting to do, I’m wanting like 2 or 3 days there in October. Any ideas are appreciated. #activity #hiking
