Publisher's summary

If you’ve ever felt the urge to strip off those pesky clothes and dive headfirst into nature, you’re in the right place. Let me tell you, there’s nothing quite like the feeling of the sun on your skin, the breeze in places where the sun usually doesn’t shine, and the sheer joy of embracing nature in your birthday suit.

You might be wondering, “Why on Earth would anyone want to hike naked?” Well, let me tell you, my curious friend, once you’ve experienced the freedom and connection of hiking in the buff, you’ll never look at a pair of hiking shorts the same way again. Clothes can be so overrated, don’t you think? They’re restrictive, they get sweaty, and they never quite let you feel the true essence of the wild. Plus, think of all the laundry you won’t have to do!

In this book, we’re going to embark on a journey that’s equal parts hilarious, enlightening, and downright freeing. We’ll explore the history of naked hiking (yes, people have been doing this long before it was cool), learn how to prepare for your first foray into the wild without clothes, and discover the best trails where you can let it all hang out. Along the way, I’ll share my own stories and mishaps, because let’s be real, what’s an adventure without a few laughs and a bee sting in an awkward place?

Now, I know what you’re thinking: “Kristin, what about all the other hikers? Won’t they be shocked to see me in my natural state?” Fear not, intrepid hiker! This book is packed with tips on how to find nudist-friendly trails, how to handle unexpected encounters with clothed hikers, and how to hike confidently and respectfully. Spoiler alert: a friendly wave and a smile go a long way.

We’ll also dive into the sensory experience of naked hiking. Trust me, feeling the cool forest floor beneath your feet, the tickle of tall grass on your legs, and the warm embrace of sunlight on your entire body is an experience like no other. It’s like nature is giving you a big, leafy hug. We’ll practice mindfulness and meditation on the trail, turning every hike into a journey of self-discovery and inner peace. Or at the very least, a journey of not worrying about tan lines.

And of course, we’ll cover the health benefits—because who doesn’t love a little science to back up their fun? Naked hiking is great for your physical health, boosting your mental well-being, and deepening your spiritual connection with the natural world. Plus, it’s a fantastic conversation starter at parties. Just imagine casually dropping, “Oh, I went naked hiking last weekend,” and watching jaws drop.

So, whether you’re a seasoned nudist or a curious newbie ready to dip your toes (and everything else) into the world of naked hiking, this book is for you. We’ll laugh, we’ll learn, and most importantly, we’ll embrace the pure, unadulterated joy of being naked in nature. Ready to strip down and step into adventure? Let’s get naked and hit the trails!
