Hiking, a first backcountry night, a camper van trip: our step-by-step guides gather, in the order they come up, the stages of a well-planned trip.
A good trip is often decided the night before: picking where to go for your level, reading the forecast, packing your pack and telling someone where you’re headed. Our step-by-step guides take these stages in the order they come up, from choosing a trail to getting home, and lead each time to our detailed guides.
They follow the same rules as our articles: official sources, a date of last check, and a review before publication. They also say where their advice stops, because careful planning replaces neither experience nor caution on the trail.
