Snacks are an important thing on a camping trip. You’re going to be spending a lot of time outdoors being active and you need to make sure you’re fueling and refueling your body as necessary and with healthy snacks. These Hiker Energy Bikes are an excellent way to give yourself a boost.

These are great because you can make them ahead of time and bring them with you on a hike or mountain biking trail. If you get hungry during the trip, you can eat a couple to keep feeling good.

Hiker Energy Bites

This recipe is great because it makes enough to serve between four and six people. That means you can give everyone on your camping trip a snack.
