About Us

At Hiking Buyers Guide, we believe the right gear makes every hike better.

Our mission is simple: to help hikers of all experience levels choose the gear that fits their needs, their goals, and their time on the trail. Whether you’re taking your first walk in the woods or preparing for a multi-day trip, we’re here to provide clear, practical, and honest guidance.


What We Do

We break down hiking gear into easy-to-understand categories and offer direct links to in-depth buyer’s guides across our trusted network of gear-specific websites. Each site in our network focuses on one gear category, giving you detailed comparisons, product reviews, and straightforward advice — without hype or clutter.


What Makes Us Different

  • We’re gear-focused. This site is about hiking gear — not travel blogs or generic outdoor content.
  • We keep it practical. Our recommendations focus on real-world use, not trends or marketing language.
  • We connect the dots. Our network of buyer’s guide sites makes it easy to explore one piece of gear at a time, or build out your entire hiking setup.

We’ve created a network of specialized websites so you can explore gear in detail when you’re ready to go deeper:

You can browse gear by category or visit the sites directly to compare options and find what works best for your needs.

We created this site for people who want:

  • Honest gear advice without hype
  • Beginner-friendly explanations and checklists
  • A way to learn what they need without sifting through endless ads
