If you're new to hiking or AllTrails, in this video, I'll show you how to quickly get started using the AllTrails app, from finding a hike to navigating with it on the trails. Then, I'll share my insights from using AllTrails for many years so that you don't have to make the mistakes I did. This is a quick video of about 9 minutes designed to quickly get you hiking with AllTrails.
Hi, I'm Cris Hazzard, aka Hiking Guy, a professional outdoors guide, hiking expert, and author based in Southern California. I created this website to share all the great hikes I do with everyone else out there. This site is different because it gives detailed directions that even the beginning hiker can follow. I also share what hiking gear works and doesn't so you don't waste money. I don't do sponsored or promoted content; I share only the gear recommendations, hikes, and tips that I would with my family and friends. If you like the website and YouTube channel, please support these free guides (I couldn't do it without folks like you!).
