Being at summer camp, one of the best activities for kids is hiking. In fact, even at home, taking a walk outside… maybe around the neighborhood or through the local park.. is a great way to spend part of your day. We’ve mentioned it before (and here), but playing outdoors, exploring the natural world, or simply noticing the different aspects of nature around them, is amazingly beneficial for kids.

This photo is a group of Rockbrook girls hiking in the Pisgah National Forest. The mountain in the background with the “saddle” (two peaks connected) is called “Sam Knob” (elevation 6055 ft.).
