I've hiked in France, pretty much exclusively within a nudist area. This year, for the first time, I hiked naked in public in Tenerife. So I guess Tenerife is my favourite 😃

nakedhiker.bsky.social•44 days ago

Again, plenty of open, uninhabited land to explore.

burdz.bsky.social•44 days ago

If only I could do that without fear of arrest in America...

nakedhiker.bsky.social•44 days ago

I believe it is permissible in National Parks in some states.

burdz.bsky.social•44 days ago

I was told that it's legal in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park, but local laws override that. I've bumped into people a number of times and, luckily, no one complained. I haven't hiked naked in a couple years now, don't want to push my luck.

nakedhiker.bsky.social•44 days ago

This would be intensely frustrating.

burdz.bsky.social•44 days ago

It is. It's good that the parks are used more since covid,, but now you have the "Karens" on patrol.

I need to try some alternatives.

I’ve only ever naked hiked in the UK, but I’d love to try up in the mountains in France

nakedhiker.bsky.social•44 days ago

I've only naked hiked in the UK, Spain and Colombia.

In Colombia I felt a lot more cautious and self-conscious, as it's not on people's radar as it is in the UK.

Spain is great for the weather and the vast tracts of uninhabited land, but the UK is probably where people are most accepting of it.

guynaturist.bsky.social•44 days ago

Nice, would love to try Spain too. You think France would be accepting too?

nakedhiker.bsky.social•44 days ago

I know people have hiked naked there – @naturistfg.bsky.social and @twonaturists.bsky.social, for example – and they have nothing but good things to say about it.

guynaturist.bsky.social•44 days ago

Nice! Will quiz them someday 👍

Only ever rambled as a naked group. I think the same is true everywhere… One naked man is clearly up to no good and should be treated with suspicion. A group is clearly organised and viewed with intrigue and amusement… the more there are the less others care..

nakedgardeneruk.bsky.social•36 days ago

I think there are some people who would assume a naked man is flashing, mind you they'd probably assume a naked couple were looking for somewhere to have sex. I'm still nervous of hiking naked and solo.

fellwanderer.bsky.social•44 days ago

Maybe that’s what your ex would have thought, but what about you?
I mostly hike alone as at the moment I don’t have anyone local that I can go out with. However, I can’t recall ever being accused of being ‘up to no good’.

nakedhiker.bsky.social•44 days ago

Me, only once in hundreds+ times.

nakedhiker.bsky.social•44 days ago

There's undoubtedly safety in numbers, but solo hikers also have the right to hike. I strongly disagree that they are "clearly up to no good."

I have often hiked alone for the sheer joy of it.

walkington75.bsky.social•44 days ago

I’m just commenting based on what my ex wife would have thought…

nakedhiker.bsky.social•44 days ago

It seems she had a limited, and very biased, view on the subject.

icecoldnudist.bsky.social•44 days ago

Only foreign country I have any experience of is Germany, in a deserted part of the Black Forest.

I'm really keen to make it to Fuerteventura soon.

At home I'm blessed to have a lot of places I can hike pretty much on my doorstep.

Guess that's a long winded way of saying the UK

ralf-sprenger.bsky.social•44 days ago

My favourite country for naked hikings is defenitely Germany.
Our people are very tolerant about nude hikers and I'm joining for the Westfälischen Naturistentage during the last years. A wonderful nude experience!

icecoldnudist.bsky.social•44 days ago

Wow, this looks like an incredible event. Maybe one day I'll come to Germany for a week of naked hiking. My nude experiences in Germany have been some of my favourite memories

nakedhiker.bsky.social•44 days ago

Germany tops the league for FKK experiences in general, thanks to recognised, signposted and mapped nude walking routes, wellness centres and saunas (even just the pools!), naked sunbathing and, perhaps most importantly, the general acceptance of nudity and naked people by the population.

nakedhiker.bsky.social•44 days ago

I should've hiked in Germany while I was living there (not a million miles away from the Black Forest) and had the chance, but for one reson or another, work mostly, I never did.

I'd like to do the Naturistenweg on the Lüneburger Heide.

icecoldnudist.bsky.social•44 days ago

Yes my days of visiting Germany for work are now few and far between. I've had some wonderful experiences in germany though. The spa's, swimming in lake tegernsee and sunbathing in the heart of Munich were all pretty idyllic.

The naturistenweg is a new one on me, what an amazing place that looks

nakedhiker.bsky.social•44 days ago

On my bucket list.

icecoldnudist.bsky.social•44 days ago

Mine too now 👍🏻

nudeandhappy.com•43 days ago

Spain, as public nudity is legal almost everywhere.

nakedhiker.bsky.social•43 days ago

It certainly makes life easier!

wanderingnaturist.bsky.social•44 days ago

Definitely, Spain. And not because I live there, but because all the amazing places you can hike without hardly meeting anyone.

nakedhiker.bsky.social•44 days ago

It's a country full of big, empty spaces.

wanderingnaturist.bsky.social•44 days ago

Indeed. Especially inlands, out of the coast and Madrid
