The Best Nature Books for your Next Adventure in the Great Outdoors

July 25, 2020

This list of best nature books includes memoirs, biographies, fiction, how-to books and guidebooks. Escape into nature with this list of 38 books about the great outdoors | My Wandering Voyage travel blog #books #GreatOutdoors #Hiking #NatureBooks #Readings

There’s nothing better than kicking back, with your tent set up, campfire going and the stars up above you. Sometimes, though, it’s not always possible to get outside and live the good life. Reading, for me, is a form of escapism, and when life gets tough or stressful, all I want to do is pick up a book and escape to a new world, especially when it’s one of the best nature books.

Why you Should use a Hiking Log for your Adventures

April 14, 2015

Use a hiking log for your next hike to record what you see on your adventures | My Wandering Voyage Travel Blog

Get your free hiking log below!

Who would Lewis and Clark, or Marco Polo, or Ferdinand Magellan be without record keeping? Their discoveries and accomplishments would be lost over time (even though Magellan had someone write for him). Writing down your discoveries, observations and record of your hike in a hiking log can be beneficial.
