What equipment do you need for hiking

With the development of the times, the high-tempo life in big cities makes people feel a little tired. At this time, it is a good choice to go into nature and have an outdoor hiking trip. Participants are called "donkey friends", so as donkey friends, what do we need on foot?

1. When walking by your feet, you must wear a pair of good shoes and professional walking shoes.

First, walking shoes are waterproof and breathable, reducing sweating. B, walking shoes are generally designed to be lighter, reducing the burden. C, the stability and strength of shoes are much better than ordinary shoes.

There are many kinds of hiking shoes, the most important thing is to fit your feet, and you can walk well all the way if you are comfortable.

2. backpacks are also important when hiking. You should take all the necessary things with you when traveling. At this time you need to consider the size of your backpack. Generally, a short-distance 40L backpack is enough. If you need a long trip, you should need a backpack of about 60L.

In addition to choosing the size of the backpack, the most important thing is to be professional. A professional backpack can make you comfortable to carry and relieve stress.

3. The choice of crutches also depends on the distance and carrying weight. If it's just a short distance, it's totally unnecessary. If you have to walk a long distance, you definitely need a good crutch to help you share the pressure.

Good trekking poles can improve the stability of walking and reduce the burden on legs.

It is important to prepare some basic drugs.

Bring according to your usual needs, such as cold medicine, antidiarrheal medicine, wind oil essence, etc.

5. The food is mainly chocolate and sugar.

This can provide enough high-energy food and pure water.

What equipment do you need for outdoor hiking?

1, backpack

Generally speaking, the capacity of a backpack is about 15 ~ 20 liters, unless there is a need to cook a big meal on the mountain or other special needs. The basic contents of raincoats, rain gear, snacks, drinking water, personal 3C products, wallets, keys, medical boxes, toilet paper and other items can be stuffed in. If you want to be more advanced, there will be pots, stoves, tableware and even portable tables and chairs for you to cook a hot meal in the rest place. At this time, the capacity of the backpack needs to be increased to 20 ~ 30 liters.

2. Pants

Since the single-day hiking route is mostly at middle and low altitudes, the temperature will not be too low. It is recommended to wear light, breathable and loose pants, and try to avoid wearing cotton and heavy casual pants, such as drawstring sweatpants and jeans. But if it's really cold, it's okay to wear thicker pants.

Step 3 coat

Shirts, like pants, try to avoid wearing cotton clothes, so breathable, sweat-wicking, quick-drying polyester fiber clothing is the first choice, which can effectively and quickly discharge sweat, keep the skin dry, and will not let sweat stay on the clothes. If you really don't know how to choose, turn out the washing label of the clothes. If it says "polyester 100%", basically the style you like can't be wrong.

Step 4 coat

There are several kinds of coats you will wear on foot, which belong to the outer layer of the coat, leather windbreaker and soft shell, and the middle layer of warm clothes, such as chemical fiber, down and fleece coat. However, because the route is set in the middle and low altitude mountainous area, and it is a round trip on the same day, it is not necessary to wear a warm layer unless there are special circumstances. If you really need to keep warm, just a thick coat and hat T can meet the demand. As long as you can carry it or put it in a backpack, you can wear it if you want, without being too rigid, and you can buy it again if necessary.

5, trekking poles

If used properly, the trekking stick is like having two more feet, and climbing with four feet is definitely more efficient than climbing with two feet. Auxiliary output when going uphill, and help the knee to absorb shock when going downhill. In some middle-level mountainous areas with high humidity, it can also increase the braking force of going up and down slopes, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

What equipment do you need for outdoor hiking?

One: A backpack needs a backpack system and a bracket. From the design and function point of view, the capacity is smaller than that of a large backpack, which will be easier to carry.

Medium-sized backpacks are suitable for hiking days and intensity spans, ranging from two or three days short to twenty or thirty days long. Hikers who are good at scientific packaging and lightweight exercises can take all camping equipment with a medium-sized backpack.

Two: put on the coat, and integrate the functions of perspiration, warmth, wind and rain protection into the inner, middle and outer layers, and "wear" the upper body layer by layer. Skin windbreaker This is a kind of clothes made of very high-density chemical fibers. Literally, it can be seen that the main function of this kind of clothes is to prevent wind, and besides, it can only prevent light rain.

Three: Because the buttocks are always moving, the cold resistance of the legs is much stronger than that of the upper body. Often a pair of outer pants is enough, and the thermal layer is sometimes the bottom layer or merged with the outer pants.

The principle of the bottom layer is the same as that of the surface layer, which needs the functions of moisture absorption, perspiration and ventilation. Therefore, we must first eliminate cotton underwear and underwear; The best outer pants are "all-around players" who are windproof, waterproof, quick-drying, breathable and wear-resistant, but "all-around players" do not exist. Pants and jackets are opposite, and the fabrics and functions are the same. Jacket pants have stronger wind and water resistance than other pants, but too good air tightness also means poor air permeability. Although it blocked the rain, sweat accumulated in my pants, and when I went out for a walk, there was a situation of "heavy rain outside and light rain inside". Jacket pants are very wear-resistant and can withstand scratches from bushes, rock walls, etc. However, their fabrics are not flexible and feel bad, which leads to inflexible leg movements. As far as comfort is concerned, assault pants are the worst of several outdoor pants, and they are not warm.

Four: Shoes For beginners who have just started hiking, the "hiking shoes" area can be temporarily ignored. In China, the classification of hiking shoes and hiking shoes is somewhat vague and often confused. But hiking shoes are actually heavy hiking shoes, which are used to climb mountains with high altitude and complex terrain, and sometimes even used with crampons. Only experienced players and professional climbers can use it. The out shoes that novices are most likely to use are cross-country running shoes, low-top hiking shoes and middle-top hiking shoes, which can meet almost all the routes you will try when you first start hiking.

Five: the trekking pole is an important auxiliary tool for hikers, which can disperse the impact of landing on both legs to both arms. It can help you when you go up the mountain or can't walk, relieve the pressure on your legs and knees when you go down the mountain, and prevent you from being injured because you rush too fast. The price of trekking poles ranges from tens to hundreds. Generally speaking, good quality trekking poles are lighter and more durable, and cheap trekking poles sometimes even "die before they can be conquered". However, regardless of the price and function, it is better to use a trekking stick than not to use it, and even taking two branches is better than "unarmed".

The trekking poles are divided into folding and telescopic. Foldable trekking poles are easy to store. After folding, it is basically as high as a 50L backpack, but the length of the trekking poles is fixed after they are fully opened, so the length cannot be adjusted according to actual needs. Telescopic trekking poles can be adjusted in length, but it is best not to adjust to the limit length, which will increase the burden on joints. This trekking pole has two locking systems, one is locked from the outside, the other is locked from the inside, and the external locking structure is relatively difficult to be damaged.

Six: Knee protectors will wear out their knees all their lives as long as they walk. The load when walking also puts a lot of pressure on the knee. Once the knee is damaged, it is almost irreversible. After several days of high-intensity hiking or mountain climbing, muscle strength will drop, legs will tremble and knees will tremble. You need a pair of knee pads, which help to fix the patella and improve the stability of walking. There are three common knee pads: all-wrapped, round hole and belt. All-inclusive fixed support function is the best; The circular hole kneepad is designed with an opening at the patella position, which can better fix the patella; Band type, also called patellar band, is worn a little below the patella and has no protective effect on other parts of the knee.

Necessary equipment for hiking in summer

Summer is a good time for hiking, so what equipment does summer hiking have? Come and have a look with me.

Necessary equipment for hiking in summer

1, drugs

Medicine bag, 2 1 gemvita, cold medicine, gastrointestinal medicine, altitude sickness medicine, painkiller, trauma medicine, motion sickness medicine, gauze, cotton swab, adhesive tape, insect repellent, Huoxiang Zhengqi pill or berberine, hemostatic patch and ammonia water.

When hiking outdoors, you should take some necessary medical supplies with you. It is hot in summer, and outdoor sports are very tiring. In addition to timely hydration during travel, we should also pay attention to heatstroke prevention and cooling.

Necessary supplies such as essential oil, Huoxiang Zhengqi water and trauma medicine should be equipped during the trip. If you find dizziness, you should apply wind oil to your temples and nose in time, or take Huoxiang Zhengqi water in time and have a rest. If the situation is serious, you should stop walking and go to the nearest hospital for treatment.

Step 2: backpack

The size of the backpack depends on the distance of the travel route. Generally, it takes about 30 liters to go around the city. For long-distance travel, MM needs a backpack of about 55 liters, and GG needs a backpack of more than 65 liters.

When choosing to buy a backpack, you must try again and again, and ask the sales staff with relevant technology about the correct use of the backpack, otherwise it will not play a role in reducing and balancing the burden when traveling.

When buying a bag, it doesn't have to be the most expensive. It's important to adapt the transportation system to your body. The fabric should be strong and slightly rain-proof. If you buy a backpack without a rain cover, don't forget to buy a backpack rain cover at the same time.

3. shoes

The quality of shoes will directly affect your personal safety, so you must choose a good pair of hiking shoes. Hiking shoes are best made in Gao Bang. They can protect your ankles. People get hurt easily after walking for a long time.

If you are an outdoor sports enthusiast, it is worthwhile to spend time, energy and money on choosing a good pair of shoes. Personally, GX waterproof and breathable fabric is the best, so you must go to an authentic shopping mall or a professional outdoor goods store to buy brand shoes.

When trying on shoes, please remember that it must be half a yard or a yard. When you put them on, you can measure the heels with your fingers. The difference is about one finger. If you are going to travel for a long time, or you know that you are going to wade, you should prepare a pair of upstream shoes as a backup. Of course, you can also buy a pair of cheap liberation shoes.

4. Underwear

It is best not to wear cotton underwear for close-fitting clothes, because cotton underwear absorbs sweat better and makes you feel cold in cold areas. In foreign mountaineering circles, cotton underwear is called "clothes worn by the dead". Of course, it is just a general hiker, and the situation is not so terrible.

5. Wear clothes and pants

Every time you travel, no matter spring, summer, autumn and winter, handsome guys and beautiful women should wear long clothes and trousers. You will protect yourself when you walk through bushes and grass, and of course it is best to be waterproof. It is best to wear stormtroopers or quick-drying pullovers. Never wear jeans when hiking for a long distance, because if you sweat or rain. Jeans tend to get warm, which will become a burden on you and affect the movement of your legs.

Summer is also the high incidence period of thunderstorm weather. If lightning strikes, you should take off your metal objects and put on your raincoat to avoid getting wet. During the whole process, it is forbidden to use mobile phones. At the same time, it is necessary to quickly find a cave or low-lying place for lightning protection to ensure the safety of travel.

6. hats and headscarves

You can choose a general sports hat, and the most important thing is sun protection. Of course, you can also choose that kind of wide-brimmed hat, which can not only shade the sun but also prevent rain, and reduce the heat dissipation of the head in cold areas. A considerable proportion of human heat is radiated from the head, especially when the temperature is low. You can also choose headscarves in hot weather. Personally, I think headscarves have better heat dissipation. Also feel more comfortable.

7. Sunglasses

Sunglasses are used to shade the sun, which is more important in summer. In direct sunlight, the top of the mountain will blind you. But it will also bring visual errors, so please use it with caution when it is cloudy or dangerous.

8. gloves

Whether you are going up or down the mountain, whether it is cold or hot, you must have a pair of gloves. Because walking in grass and rocks will give you great protection, but pay attention to wearing gloves will reduce the sensitivity of your hands.

9. socks

When choosing shoes, you will choose half a yard or a yard. Now when it comes to socks, you should choose some thicker socks when traveling, because if socks are too thin, they will easily rub your feet. You can wear two pairs of socks if they are thin.

10, sunscreen

The correct way to use sunscreen is to apply it to 1 hour half an hour before going out, and regularly apply it outdoors. If you exceed the safe exposure stage, you will still get sunburned or tanned. In the purchase of sunscreen products, we should avoid blind spots. It is not that the higher the sunscreen index, the better the sunscreen effect. The main function of sunscreen is sunscreen, and a small part is sunscreen black. It is impossible to achieve the effect of not tanning completely by relying solely on sunscreen products.

The benefits of hiking in summer

Travel easily and relieve stress.

I remember reading an article in Beiqing Daily that according to statistics, 70% of a person's daily stress and troubles are caused by travel and traffic! Hey, so if you are a traveler like me, how lucky you should be-I start hiking with my backpack as soon as I get off work every day, listening to the Walkman and walking through Sanlitun Village, striding under my feet, looking at the fashionable MM around me, and I will soon enter the subway station and get home in a few minutes. Convenient, economical and eye-catching.

Improve the function of human organs

According to medical statistics, walking can reduce blood pressure and blood viscosity, help strengthen myocardium and reduce the formation of thrombosis.

Strong muscles and bones

Walking can exercise the whole skeletal system, relax tendons and activate collaterals, strengthen muscles, move joints, strengthen bones and reduce osteoporosis.

Regulate feelings

As early as his youth, Mao Zedong wrote "Sports Research", saying that sports "strengthen bones and muscles, strengthen will and adjust feelings". Strengthening bones and muscles, as mentioned above, at least 20 minutes of exercise every day, rain or shine, every day, month after month, year after year, is the smelting of will.

alleviate a disease

Hiking can control and relieve symptoms. For example, the utilization rate of glucose in diabetic patients is very poor. Walking can increase the utilization rate of glucose in the body, thus controlling the development of diabetes. A health follow-up survey was conducted among 72,488 nurses in the United States. People who walk for more than 6 hours a week have a 40% lower incidence of stroke than others.

Matters needing attention in summer hiking

1, walking together can help and take care of each other. Luggage belt eats less and is light, but he must take some common medicines.

2. To master the walking speed, it is generally slower at both ends and faster in the middle. Start walking slowly, then speed up. You should have a good rest on the road, usually at noon. Rest places should avoid direct sunlight and low-lying and humid places.

3. Wash feet with warm water after walking to relieve fatigue. When there are blisters on the soles of your feet, you can puncture the water with a needle and then apply mercuric chloride to prevent infection. Remember not to tear off the skin, which is easy to be infected and will aggravate the pain in the feet.

4, hiking up the mountain, the body should lean forward slightly. When climbing a steep slope, you should take the zigzag route. When going down the mountain, lean back, relax the muscles of lower limbs and avoid low back and leg pain.

5, hiking should be based on their own physical condition to determine the daily itinerary, generally walking 4-5 kilometers per hour. You can choose shade, gazebo and other places to rest 15 minutes to recover your strength.

6. Before you leave, you should know all aspects of the area you need to pass, your physical condition and the climatic conditions at that time.

7. Four types of people are not suitable for mountain climbing: people with leg diseases, such as arthritis, osteoarthropathy and osteoporosis. Patients with coronary heart disease, when climbing mountains, have greater physical exertion, faster blood circulation and heavier physical burden, which are easy to induce angina pectoris and myocardial infarction. Epilepsy patients, once they have an attack, are in danger. People who are dizzy fall easily.

8. Take as little luggage as possible and go into battle lightly. For the elderly, crutches should be brought, which not only saves physical strength, but also contributes to safety.

9. When walking on a steep slope, it is best to take a zigzag route, which can reduce the slope. Don't walk too fast down the hill, you can't run. This will make your knee and leg muscles too tense, which will lead to knee injury or muscle strain.

10, don't sit on the wet ground and the air outlet when resting, loosen your collar slightly when sweating, and don't take off your clothes and hats to prevent catching cold.

1 1. When you start climbing, you must not increase the amount of exercise at the beginning, but step by step. Usually do some simple warm-up exercises first, and then gradually increase the intensity according to a certain breathing frequency to avoid sudden changes in breathing frequency during exercise.

12, the climbing intensity should not be too high, and the heart rate should be kept at 120 ~ 140 beats/min. Mountain climbing is an excellent aerobic exercise, and it is generally advisable to exercise 2 ~ 4 times a week.

What is hiking?

The term hiking originally refers to hiking in Nepal from 65438 to 2009 in the 1960s. In Xian Yi, hiking is a flexible and free way to travel. Hiking can be divided into short-distance hiking and long-distance hiking, both of which are long-distance hiking exercises in suburbs, rural areas or Shan Ye, but the items needed for short-distance hiking are relatively simple, and long-distance hiking requires good outdoor knowledge and skills, such as hiking shoes, tents, emergency clothes, backpacks, emergency tools, maps, compasses, etc.

Hiking is different from what we usually call traveling, walking, race walking and mountain climbing. Hikers are very popular in western developed countries because they walk, swim and watch without time or season restrictions and are carefree and free. Compared with the traditional tourism mode, tourists' tourism awareness is more clear and their travel itinerary can be changed flexibly. Due to the high participation and simplicity of hiking, tourists can not only gain a strong travel experience from natural and cultural landscapes, but also be used as a way to strengthen their physique and temper their will. According to hiking resources and route forms, it can be divided into natural leisure hiking, humanistic hiking and special comprehensive hiking.
