Group tips

Get some good friends to go along with you. Like-minded people will have a far better time together on the trails than a few people who do not share the same passion for nature or backpacking. If your friends share the same passion but are less experienced, show some patience and remember that you are all there to have fun. Maybe you will have to walk a little slower than usual but this only gives you extra time to soak in your surroundings. Share your backpacking tips with them beforehand or along the way
