Planning Your First Multi-Day Hike in the UK
A multi-day hike involves layers of planning that a day walk does not require. Accommodation or camping, food and water for multiple days, kit that covers you for nights as well as days, and the cumulative effect of consecutive walking days on your body. Done well, it is a completely different experience to a day hike. Done poorly, it becomes an exercise in managing discomfort while carrying too much.
