I would love to thank Sahil Patel for the writing prompt I used to create this article. He provided the prompt in his article titled https://medium.com/reciprocall/unveiling-natures-whispers-the-profound-power-of-trekking-in-the-wilderness-f8faef804521. He is an experienced nature writer, and I enjoy reading his articles and writing articles from the prompts he gives.

The prompt he provided was to Write about the transformative power of trekking in nature. Share the stories of your trekking experiences in nature and how they helped you transform yourself. One of the guidelines he used was to use Thrilling Trekking Experiences as the prompt.

Introduction

To ensure that we understand the differences between trekking and hiking, we need to start with a definition of trekking and compare that term with hiking. These terms are not interchangeable, and they have separate meanings. Hiking is a long, vigorous walk on footpaths or hiking trails that lasts for a couple of hours, one day, or overnight.
