ALMOST A HIKE
One day walks that are 15-20 km long, you can already say that you have been on a hike (although you can always say that who controls this?). Most likely going for these walks you will have to spend most of the day because usually you will have to travel to the walk starting point. It is worth bringing water and some food with you. Probably after the walk you will feel some enjoyable tiredness in the evening.
