Hiking

Hiking is the preferred term, in Canada


and the United States, for a long, vigorous
walk, usually on trails (footpaths), in the
countryside, while the word walking is
used for shorter, particularly urban walks.
On the other hand, in the United Kingdom,
and the Republic of Ireland, the term
walking is acceptable to describe all forms
of walking, whether it is a walk in the park
or backpacking in the Alps. The word
hiking is also often used in the UK, along
with rambling (a slightly old-fashioned
term), hillwalking, and fell walking (a
term mostly used for hillwalking in
northern England). In New Zealand a long,
vigorous walk or hike is called tramping.
It is a popular activity with numerous
hiking organizations worldwide, and
studies suggest that all forms of walking
have health benefits. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hiking
