#106 - How To Start Backpacking and Hiking Alone
Backpacking alone is not the easiest thing in the world to do. It can be downright uncomfortable or even scary at first, but if you’re willing to put in the work, being alone in the backcountry can be pretty darn incredible.
In this episode, I’m going to share with you what I’ve learned about backpacking and hiking alone and give you some tips and tricks on how you can get there yourself.
I won’t just cover HOW to backpack alone, but WHY you’d want to do so in the first place and what my personal journey has been (successes and failures).
Wherever you’re at in your backpacking journey, this episode will help you go from constantly having to hike in a group or with a partner to embarking on an adventure by yourself.
