Trekking Poles

Trekking Poles offer even more relief for your feet and ankles. Using a set of trekking poles while hiking or backpacking can prevent severe ankle sprains. More importantly, trekking poles or walking sticks allow you to use your arms to assist in you while hiking leaving your legs less fatigued. As a result, you can hike farther and without worrying about a sprained ankle. Trekking poles also allow you to ditch the high top heavy boots in exchange for lightweight lowtop shoes. Less weight on your feet means less fatigue allowing you to accomplish longer hiking distances.
