   01Invite five people to a dinner party

   Of all the games to play while walking, this is one of the best ice-breakers for hiking groups. It’s even more interesting, and even educational, when you’re hiking with a group of mixed nationalities and mixed demographics.

   02And then

   This is one of my favourite backpacking games; it’s also fun to play around the campfirebecause everyone needs to use their imagination. Depending on the content of the story, And Then can be a suitable hiking game for kids too. Playing with kids is extra fun because you never know which direction the story will take!

   09I Spy

   I Spy is a classic kid’s game that’s fun to play while walking. It’s also a good trail game to make you look around a bit more and notice all the small things about your surroundings. Plus, you can play it easily on trails where there’s not space to walk next to your hiking budies.

   10Map reading

   Now that everyone has a GPSon a mobile phone, map reading is a challenge for adults as well as children. To practice navigation skills, head to an unmarked trail, switch off GPS, and practice using a map and compass instead. It’s extra rewarding when you can find your way without electronic guidance! You can either learn basic map and compass reading skills at home or make sure that at least one person in the group knows how to use a map and compass.

   11Nature photography

   Even people who feel uncomfortable in front of the camera love taking photos. You can use your hiking trips to improve photography skills or set a photography challenge to slow down the fastest hikers in the group. (e.g. who can photograph the most colourful flower or the widest variety of plants). There’s no need to buy a rugged camera or DSLR for this hiking activity as most smartphones have a decent enough camera.

   12Pick up litter

   Although it’s not technically a backcountry game, outdoors lovers should take pride in cleaning up the countryside. Next time you go hiking with a group, add some purpose to your hike;bring some compostable trash bags and washable gloves so you can pick up trash on the way. Like photography, this hiking activity for adults and kids will slow down fast hikers and help you to keep a group at the same pace.

   13Catch my shadow

   Catch my shadow is a handy game for late afternoons when the kids are getting tired and losing interest in the hike. Walk ahead of your kids so that your shadow falls a couple of meters in front of them. Then challenge your kid to catch your shadow. The trick is to set a pace that slightly faster than theirs but not too tiring. Remember that this activity won’t work on shady trails.

   14Follow the leader

   If you’re on a well-marked trail or you already know the area well, ask your kids to lead the way. Allow them to take the wrong way if you have enough time and let them correct the mistake. Leading is more entertaining than following so they won’t get bored. It’ll help them develop a sense of direction too.

   15Trail hide and seek

   On trails where it’s safe to do so, let the kids run ahead and hide somewhere on the trail. Either give them a whistle or teach them a bird call to help you find each other and tell them not to go out of hearing distance.

   • Singing! I love singing with my kids as we walk and hike! Just pick a song and start singing… easy!
   • I Spy. I feel like I grew up with my parents using “I Spy” any time we were out of the house and I was bored. This game is so simple, can be done anywhere and works well in a group when there’s a wide age span.
   • Storytelling. For many families with young children, storytelling happens just naturally as a way to keep little minds occupied or entertained. But, larger groups can all join in.
   • Two Truths and a Lie. This is a fun game whether you’re playing with strangers or people you’ve known for ages. In this game, each person takes a turn telling three statements about themselves, two of which are true, and one of which is a lie.
