Hiking destinations
Step by step, one foot in front of the other. This is how you explore the world's most beautiful landscapes at your own pace.
​
Hiking can range from short day hikes to multi-day adventures. In hut-hiking, you hike between mountain huts, often in alpine areas such as the Dolomites, where you can spend the night and continue your trek the next day. This option is ideal for those who want to cover longer distances without bringing camping gear. On the other hand, one-day treks are perfect for exploring the beauty of a region in a few hours, returning to a comfortable base in the evening.
Ninomad offers the best tips for your clothing and packing for every hike, from waterproof jackets to hiking poles. With our unique product comparisons, we make sure you're prepared for any hike.

Packing list for hiking
What do you take with you on a hiking vacation? The trick is in packing just enough. Not too much for the unnecessary pounds on your shoulders, but not too little either. Sometimes you're days away from a store to buy food or the weather forecast isn't as sunny as you'd seen beforehand after all. So (light) backups are vital.
That's why we've created a packing list for you that will get you through your hike. Depending on the area and climate you're going to, we've put together a solid base for you, so you're sure to be well prepared.
Gear comparison for hiking
When you think of a brisk walk, perhaps the first thing that comes to mind is good shoes. And rightfully so! Because footwear can make or break your hike. No one is waiting for hefty blisters, a sole that breaks down quickly or shoes that the rain goes right through.
​
But besides shoes, there are many other items of clothing and supplies that are essential during your hiking adventure.
That's why we've compared hiking products for you on different aspects.
