Yesterday I kicked off hiking season with a headlight and crampons. I learned last summer that in order to not die while hiking mountains, I need to make my lower body parts lighter. Walking with extra kilos is super heavy, and it takes away a lot of the joy. This summer I'm planning on not being the slow person everyone have to wait for, and therefore I decided to start hiking season early.
Luckily the snow is hard, so it's actually easier to hike now than during the summer. We went to a small mountain called Steiroheia, which is only 15 minutes drive from our house. It's 443 meter above sea level, and you get a super nice view along the way.
Almost full moon
I'm not sure how it is around the world, but in Norway, hiking is really a big thing. "Everyone" goes hiking. For me it's a great way to get some fresh air and of course exercise, but also it's a great way to be social. Well, in my case at the moment, I'm a great listener as I'm not able to walk and talk (and breath) at the same time. It's not often I'm quiet, so I guess my friends are happy about that :)
Sweaty and happy girls at the top
Thanks for reading!

Getting some fresh air and of course exercise is always awesome, but also it's the BEST way to be social.

Where I come from, hiking isn't a thing because of the topography of the area it's mostly flat land but I often compensate by taking walks when I get the chance and like you said, it is a great form of exercise.

And walking in the dark, no less...
Hiking is pretty big here. I haven't done much of it; I'm more of a walker. I enjoy walks along the seashore here. I guess I'll have to do a post, or two, on that in the future...
We have lots of trails along the ocean, and we're just an hour away from some great mountain hikes, too. Lots of options in this area...
