Etymology
The word hiking comes from the older word hike, which once meant 'to pull up' or 'to move quickly' and is still seen in the phrase hike up meaning 'to pull something up'. Over time hike changed to mean a long, energetic walk, so hiking today is walking in the countryside for exercise or pleasure.
