I enjoy hiking (what we call it in the states) but I don't always have the time or access to an ideal trail without a lot of travel. To 'hack' around this I use a weighted backpack (a.k.a ruck sacking) and either just wander interesting neighborhoods or hit the easier nature walks/trails. After about an hour you kinda get similar physical exertion and the feeling of a longer hike without the time or trudge costs. I still like to do some 'real' hiking when I can but rucking is a nice way to squeeze in a little outside time when I can.
