I’m no self-proclaimed hiking guru or a know-It-all backpacking expert. I’m here just to share my passion and modest knowledge with you. Still, I’m quite happy (and a bit surprised) that people seem to like what we write. This section is all about how to make the best out of your outdoor adventure.

It’s not a surprise. Hiking and camping go hand in hand like a rhythm and blues. We have some hot tips to share based on years of wild experience. Let’s start with the most important tip right away – set up your tent first. Drink later. Seriously, you’ll find great value in this section.

Me and my small team of nerdy writers and experienced collaborators spend tens of hours each week to provide you with highly informational reviews that help you choose the right backpack and hiking gear. We test some of the stuff ourselves but we also research like crazy and ask fellow backpackers for their personal feedback.
