I wouldn’t last long if I tried for a daily regimen, I’d fail so hard by maybe Saturday of week 1
For me, it’s 1-2 times a week for 3-6 mile day hikes. Gives me something to look forward to later which is important because it’s mildly addictive to get out and away from concrete and people. I savor it more when structured like that and it’s easier to keep the habit going.
Not to say one habit is better or whatever. But maybe if daily isn’t sustainable for you, mix it up
Most places you can hike aren’t open when I’m awake due to a sleep disorder (I’m only awake at night), so for me small daily walks work best. I don’t have very far I can go unless I wanna drive somewhere like a closed shopping center, so I usually walk 15-45 minutes (one loop around my complex is 15min, usually I do one or two loops)
For me the benefit is less getting away from other people, my sleep schedule is very isolating so I have plenty of alone time 😅. But it’s good to get out of my head and move my body for a while :)
I hope you have a lovely hike! ☺️ I need to get back to going on my walk consistently every day again
