Hiking is one of the most accessible (and one of our favorite) ways to get the family outside. Whether you are a new hiker or have been hiking for years before you had children its a great family activity and one you can do almost anywhere and in any season, provided you have the right hiking gear and apparel. Here at Dad Gear Review we have rounded-up hiking apparel for the whole family, including everything from hiking hats to trail shoes, to trekking poles. Below, find our round-ups, in-depth reviews, and some tips for the trail.
