High caloric foods for hiking trips
Wednesday, August 27th, 2008As for the initial question, what to take for intensive hiking trips and backpacking, I would consider these:
- roasted seeds (I prefere sesame, but can be others – pumpkin, sunflower, flax) mixed with barley malt (rice malt, sirups)
- tahini mixed with malts
- white rice (white pastas) cooked with oil – white flour product sugars go very fast into the blood
- home prepared bread from flour, salt, barley malt, raizines, seeds, sourdough (I prefer steamed over baked)
- any high-sweet baked cookies
- when burning really lot of energy I am not afraid to eat honey and maple syrup also
- fruits
- good quality beer (no white sugar)
These are my fast energy boosters on hike trips 
Ofcourse higher amount of cooked beans are always good throughout a day.
Fish is also great.
