52 hikes in a year
Are you up for a challenge? Do you love walking? Do you want to explore the nature destinations around you? How about having 52 different hiking adventures this year? I started 2020 looking at interesting travel challenges to try this year and I stumbled upon the hiking challenge on Finnish social media called "Retkihaaste". I love walking, especially walking in nature. It gives me a great chance to balance my mind, wonder at the details of nature or to talk to a friend for hours. For years I have dreamed of taking a multiple day trek in a national park but have never realized that trip because of excuses like time and money and having other priorities. But a hike, which could be anything from a walk in your neighbourhood forest, to a day of roaming the wilderness sounds much easier to achieve than a long trek. I was very excited to try this challenge and make hiking my new hobby, but I wanted to share the joys of this challenge here in my blog as well
