Gifts for Hikers Under $25: The Ultimate Budget-Friendly Hiker Gift Guide

PRACTICAL WANDERLUST

25

Buying gifts for hikers isn’t as easy as you might think. I mean, chances are they’ve already got the basics covered – hiking boots, a hydration pack, hiking pants – and if you’re not an avid hiker yourself, it can be difficult to know what to actually buy them.

Darn Tough Wool Hiking Socks

Socks are actually a crucial tool in a hiker’s arsenal – the wrong socks can ruin your hike with blisters, sweaty feet, or just an irritating hole 10 miles into an otherwise enjoyable hike.

Snacks!

50% of hiking is actually just eating trail snacks. The other 50% is dreaming about what you’re going to eat after your hike.

Picaridin Bug Repellant Lotion

This is one of our tried and tested travel essentials. The bug repellant lotion is lightweight, not oily, smells nice, and has excellent coverage. We hardly ever get bitten now!

Pocket-Sized Binoculars

Binoculars turn an ordinary hike into a cool nature scavenger hunt. You never know what bird or critter you might encounter!

First Aid Kit

Every hiker should bring a first aid kit with them on every hike, whether they’re going for 3 miles or 13.

Headlamp

As someone who has had the terrifying experience of misjudging the length of time I needed for a hike and being stuck out in the wilderness after dark, let me tell you, I will NEVER go hiking without a headlamp ever again.
