In my country, hiking is a popular outdoor activities. People do not have time for regular fitness activities, they are also too lazy for exercise, but they are more interested in outdoor activities.
Hiking combines exercise with nature, mental relaxation, and social connection, which appeals to people seeking more than just a gym workout. Its growing popularity reflects a desire for holistic fitness and outdoor experiences over traditional indoor routines.
I've noticed more people posting hiking pictures lately. Even people I know that hate going to the gym. Hiking feels less like punishment and more like an adventure. The gym just feels repetitive.
