1 Here's how to find the perfect hiker gift
You’re thinking, “Oh, if only buying gifts were as relaxing as taking a walk through nature.” We say, “Who says gift hunting always has to be stressful? There’s another way!” After all, if you know exactly what you’re doing, you’ll be able to find the right gift for a hiker in no time. Feel free to use our route planner to help you:
1.1 Budget
Quick fact check in your wallet, “How much money do I have available?” You should always ask yourself this before overzealously rushing to the nearest store. After all, you need to know the maximum amount you want to or can invest in the gift for the hiker. By the way, price comparisons on the Internet will help you to find what you are looking for more quickly. If you want to save money, don’t wait until there’s a special promotion somewhere.
1.2 Favorite sports
There are many things you can do in nature: Hiking, climbing, walking, tramping or running. Which sport does your favorite person like the most? Only when you know that, you can specifically look for a suitable gift for an outdoor fan. For example, a mountain runner needs completely different equipment than a mountain climber.
1.3 Age
In addition, you should ask yourself about the age of the hiker. Is he still a child, a teenager, an adult or already a pensioner? Knowing the age group of the person you are giving the gift to is an advantage. After all, you can then adapt the respective gift to this.
1.4 Need
Maybe your hiking buddy needs something specific right now. Maybe a new pair of shoes, functional underwear, socks, a backpack, carabiners or climbing ropes? If you know what he’d like, there’s nothing stopping you from looking for just that.
2 The best gift ideas for hikers
Hiking provisions
Hiking can be quite strenuous and energy-sapping. In order for your favorite person to be able to fortify themselves with food during breaks, they need the right provisions. So give a small food basket as a gift: pack what tastes delicious and is suitable for transport: canned food, trail mix, dried fruit, granola and protein bars, fruit puree, dried meats such as salami, bacon and snack sausages or hard cheese.
Hiking gadgets
When the weather is rainy, you don’t necessarily have to stay home. For such cases, there are hand-free umbrellas that can be easily mounted on the body. Other gadgets that make hiking more bearable include a portable espresso machine, a first aid survival kit, or a self-inflating sleeping pad that can easily be stowed in your backpack.
Accessories for hikers
No one said you can’t be chic while hiking, right? Therefore, you are welcome to give your mountain friend a fashionable gift. You can find many beautiful necklaces, bracelets and earrings in stores that match hiking. Perhaps a new smartwatch would also be an idea. Special hiking and trekking watches can measure a lot of things, including altitude.
Decorative
Even though a nature lover prefers to be outdoors rather than at home, that doesn’t mean they don’t value home decor. If your hiking friend is into decorative stuff, you should definitely give him a wall tattoo with “The mountain is calling…” or with “Love is like hiking…”. What he is also still certainly happy, is a screw man, which hikes or climbs. Optical eye-catchers are beautifully decorated deer antlers, bed linen in alpine hut style or crocheted upholstery covers.
Everything for the hut hike
Your favorite hiker is not only a few hours, but several days in nature on the road? Then he needs some things that will ensure his survival. Don’t miss: a comfortable hut sleeping bag – maybe even with thermal function, in case it’s cold outside; a robust compass; a small solar charger; a power bank for the smartphone or a microfiber towel.
Cash gifts and vouchers
If you’re really stuck when it comes to gift-finding, there are still two emergency options: Cash gifts and gift certificates. But don’t just put them in a stinkin’ ordinary envelope. Instead, use a special pop-up card with a 3D look. You can find many models in stores that are sure to please your nature lover.
3 The gift should come from the heart!
If you’re buying a gift for a birthday, wedding, Christmas, Easter or any other occasion, it should always be something special. After all, the recipient should be happy about the surprise. An important role plays not only the gift, but also the presenter, that is, you. Only if you give with heart, the whole is only valuable.
4 How much should gifts for hikers cost?
You are not a cheapskate? Then don’t let yourself be lumpen and gladly take a little more money for the perfect hiker gift in hand. Provided that it is a special occasion. Especially here, larger gifts are desirable. After all, if you only need the gift to say “Thank you!” to a loved one, there’s no need to slaughter your piggy bank.
