Trekking means walking for several days in nature, usually far from cities and busy roads. It is like a long journey on foot, often in the mountains, deserts, forests, or remote countryside. Instead of returning home in the evening, trekkers sleep in tents, huts, homestays, or small guesthouses along the way.

The goal is not just to reach one viewpoint but to move from place to place, discovering new landscapes and villages each day. Trekkers carry what they need in a backpack, such as clothes, water, snacks, and sometimes camping gear. Routes can be easy or very challenging, but they normally involve more effort than a simple day hike.

Trekking also means planning, respecting local cultures, and taking care of the environment. It is a slow way to travel that lets you feel the weather, the terrain, and the rhythm of your own steps.
