Fear of hiking alone


Fear of hiking alone

Last Saturday I took my first solo hike, it was a long but easy trail in the mountain. The only problem was that it wasn't a busy trail and of the 14km in length, I did eight without seeing anyone else.

During the trail, especially at the beginning, I was terrified. What if I sprained my ankle? What if I got lost? What if I fell into a hole? What if I got bitten by a snake?

It was a trail that I was prepared to do, I had more than enough food and water and good equipment, I had studied the trail and the weather was very good, there was nothing to go wrong and indeed it went very smoothly, but I couldn't enjoy it so well at the moment due to the fear that I was of something happening to me and no one could help.

Looking back, I dont regret doing it, but don't know if I could do it again. One little mistake and could be in serious trouble. Am I overthinkg this? Is there a way to overcome this fear?
