Hike Food Tips

Using Sphiker.

Here are some tips for packing food for a hike:

• Food to bring

  Good options include trail mix, nuts, seeds, nut butters, fresh fruit, dried or freeze-dried fruit and vegetables, energy bars, granola, and ready-made tuna salad.  (Sphiker provides dried fruits, and fruit barks.)

• How much to bring

  For longer hikes, plan to pack about 700 grams to 1 kilogram of food per person per day that includes the water required to cook.

• How to eat

  Snack regularly every one to two hours instead of eating three large meals. 

• How to pack

  Our packages are lightweight, leak-proof Ziplock bags that keep food fresh. 

• What to cook

  Our mealsmean you simply just-add-water and cook but you can add chicken, tuna, tofu and salmon packets for higher protien. 

• Breakfast

  Our granolas already have coconut milk powder added. You can add peanut butter powder, dried fruit, nuts, and seeds to bulk them out. 

• Sharing

  Share as much food as possible with your hiking partner.
