About Us
RestlessBackpacker.com was founded in 2018 as a hub for passionate backpackers & hikers that want to share their stories or advice with fellow adventurers.
Traveling to every corner of the world
Climbing every mountain
Exploring every trail
Recording all these experiences alone might leave little time for something else. We wanted to create a place where backpackers from every corner of the world can come together to share their stories with like-minded peers.
Our Mission
We love to explore mountain trails and take readers on a virtual journey through winding mountain paths that lead to breathtaking vistas. Through RestlessBackpacker we hope to:
Grow a tight community
where everybody can feel welcome to share their personal story.
Inspire others
to go out more by sharing unique mountain trails.
Make backpacking easier
by sharing unbiased reviews for tried and tested gear.
Encourage travelers
to respect nature with low-impact hiking.
