Book excerpt: Complete Hiking & Backpacking Guide Best Hiking Gears A to Z 86 World's Longest, Toughest, Most Scenic and Unique Trails I was diagnosed with high blood pressure, borderline diabetes, obesity and being overweight. I lived a busy life, and I didn't have a lot of money. Taking the time to follow a strict diet and exercise routine or paying out a lot of money for a gym membership or personal training was out of the question. At first, I tried training for a marathon as my younger brother Bobby was a cross country marathon runner. But after the second day with him, I realized, my body was not fit for marathon practice. Bobby's coach then told me about hiking, and since he was an avid hiker himself, he took me on two hiking trips, and I was hooked. That was 12 years ago. Fast forward to the present, I now am an experienced long distance hiker, I traveled and hiked in over 17 countries. I no longer have diabetes or high blood pressure. I am also a certified hiking coach for people with diabetes, high blood pressure, and obesity. I teach and promote family hiking where a family with kids of any ages can go for a hike as a mini camping trip and have a fun time. I wrote this Complete Hiking and Backpacking Guide book for people who are looking to get into shape while enjoying their time outdoor especially with their family and kids.

I teach you how to deal with many emergencies along the trails, how to choose the perfect trail and navigate yourself around, how and what to pack for various hiking trips, how to hike with family and pets. I also share many Do's and Don'ts along with some of the greatest hiking trails in the USA and around the world. 86 World's Longest, Toughest, Most Scenic and Unique Hiking Trails 10 Top Hiking Trails in the USA 10 Top Hiking Trails in Canada 10 Top Hikes in Europe 10 Top Hikes in the Great Britain 10 Top Islands of the World for Hiking 5 Top Winter Hiking Destinations in the U.S. 8 Most Unique Hiking Trails of the World 13 Longest Hiking Trails of the World 10 Most Difficult Trails of the World Feel free to look through the Table of Content area so you can see the details of what I cover in this book, this way you will have a glimpse before you actually buy the book.

Download or read book Hiking the Road to Ruins written by David A. Steinberg and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2015-02-12 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this easy to use, informative, and occasionally eccentric guidebook, David A. Steinberg blazes the trail to more than twenty-five unusual landmarks and hard-to-find destinations that are mostly within a two-hour drive of New York City. Suitable for the experienced hiker or camping adventurer—as well as anyone who has the desire to explore—Hiking the Road to Ruins includes many new ruins and historic sites to see: remnants of the two World’s Fairs in Queens, mysterious stone chambers scattered about northern Westchester County, winter adventuring in Harriman, and quarries that contain amazing artifacts. In this new edition, Steinberg adds four additional chapters and has revised throughout the book to include detailed directions, GPS coordinates to specific sites, a hand-drawn map, and suggestions for the optimal time and season to visit. Having led many types of hikes and trips over the past fifteen years, Steinberg leaves no part of the trip unplanned. He even suggests ideal conditions for outings. An overcast day, for instance, sets up the haunted atmosphere appropriate for visiting a water tower in Mountainside, New Jersey, that has links to a murder-suicide in the 1970s. Newcomers will gain experience as they make their way through the book, which includes a chapter on equipment and safety, detailed instructions on how to program a hand-held Global Positioning System receiver, and a glossary of terms. Both a practical guide and a creative chronicle, Hiking the Road to Ruins will inspire everyone to hit the trail in search of adventure.
