Habits
Foot Care Long Hike
Foot care on long hikes combines dry socks, nail prep, hotspot treatment, and camp recovery so small issues do not end multi-day trips.
Foot care on a long hike means dry socks rotated midday, airing feet at breaks, trimming nails pre-trip, and treating hotspots before they bleed into your shoes. Long toenails and wet skin drive black nails and blisters on descents.
Lightweight camp sandals spare feet at night on multi-day trips.
Common questions
-
Should you change socks mid-hike?
On long hot or wet days, a dry sock swap at lunch cuts blister risk dramatically; pack at least one spare pair per day on multi-day trips.
