>>428682>you say you're going to be hiking 25km per day. That would be 7-9 hours of hiking for most people. While hiking, I generally want a medium-size meal in the morning, a small snack for every 1 hour of activity (something the size of an energy bar or a candy bar), a medium-size snack for a midday meal (in addition to the hourly snacks), and a large meal for dinner.I don't do that. I wake, pack my gear, eat something quickly and go. Then i usually rest for food for 30 minutes, every two hours.
>Another guideline is to bring 2 pounds of food per day, but this varies, since all food has different densities.In my case it's about 900g high density food per day. About 2 pounds.
Like i said, it's about 3000 to 3500 kcal per day, so i'll probably run a small caloric deficit, but i'll manage.
My last trip was over three weeks, and i lost a few pounds. I posted it here a few month ago in great detail, it was the Harz/Hexenstieg trail. Even met an Anon! Good days.
Pic related, it was my starting food back then.
