Join me for this episode of the Rise and Wander podcast as I introduce essential tips and advice for beginner hikers. I'm providing practical steps on how to get started. The episode covers basics like using the AllTrails app for navigation, understanding elevation gain, and joining local hiking groups for support. I also discuss the '10 Essentials' for hiking safety. I'll give you practical advice on what each essential entails and tips on preparing for hikes.
