Backpackers looking to explore hiking trails in Michigan in the US could first buy one-way travel insurance in case of any accidents.
Mlive.com reports that Sierra Club Trails has launched a new website that provides a range of information for hikers looking for new trails to use around the state of Michigan, whether they're looking to hike, bike or pursue other outdoor activities.
The user-generated content provides everything from regional maps through to special sights to be seen along the way and problems that might be found with rough terrain.
As a young site, more contributors who know the region are needed, but as more information is added it could become a valuable resource for people looking to explore the area who want to benefit from other people's experiences.
Backpacker travel insurance could always prove handy for people heading into the outdoors, while a high-calorie diet could suit more enthusiastic hikers so they have plenty of energy to fuel their adventure.
