About

Hikers HQ was created in 2018 by outdoor enthusiast Dylan Murphy. Our main goal is to make hiking and backpacking easier, safer, and more enjoyable for everyone.

We hope to inspire travel and increase conservation of our cherished wild spaces through skill-based tutorials, detailed trip guides, and in-depth gear reviews.

Dylan is an outdoor enthusiast and web developer originally from the Czech Republic.

His favorite multiday hikes are Alta Via 5 in Italy, Zentral Alpine Weg 2 in Austria, or any trek in Nepal.

When Dylan isn’t hiking in the mountains, you can find him enjoying the company of family and friends, getting active outside, or already planning the next trip.

Dylan’s outdoor plans for 2022:

as many Via Ferratas in Austria and Italy as possible
trekking in Ladakh, India
snowboarding in the Dolomites, Italy
