What are the differences between Nordic walking and hiking?
Nordic walking is practiced with special poles on flat or gently sloping terrain. Single-piece poles will help propel your movement and give your upper body a thorough workout. Hiking is done with adjustable poles, which provide support when climbing and prevent slipping when descending.
What are the special features of Nordic walking poles?
Nordic walking is always practised with two poles to promote propulsion. The gauntlets allow you to release and catch the poles without dropping them. Single-pole poles are lightweight and won't shrink during practice. They absorb vibrations, so your joints are spared. The tips of the poles grip the ground and propel you forward. Removable toe caps guarantee grip on hard ground.
What are the benefits of Nordic walking?
Nordic walking is a complete sport accessible to all. It tones the body, improves breathing, is effective for weight loss and strengthens bones. Added to these physical benefits is the sense of well-being that comes with practicing this outdoor sport.
