Welcome!

We are hungry and thirsty, and we are outside. Join Hungry Hiker as we review camp kitchen products like stoves and cookware, coolers and containers and all things that fall under the eating-out-of-doors sun.

We are hikers, campers, hunters, climbers, cyclists, anglers, paddlers and general outdoor ne’er-do-wells. But at Hungry Hiker, there’s one thing we can all agree on: Our appetite for delectable food and drink is as insatiable as our lust for adventure.

Bring a fork and wear a hat!
