Hiking helps to keep you calm and happy. 18 But what sets hiking apart from other forms of exercise is that hiking can happen almost anywhere and give you the happiness that you can take from nature.

As one study suggests, when we have a personal connection to nature, we are more likely to want to protect it. That means experiences in nature — like hiking — can be mutually (相互地) beneficial, helping people and the earth.
So, grab a water bottle, a backpack... and head out on the trail. You won’t be sorry you did.
