Many designs on hiking sandals can be used when walking through parks or on sidewalks as well as on mostly level trails. However, if you are planning to venture off the beaten path, the outsoles should be chosen for the anticipated terrain. Light tread that allows more surface contact with the walking surface is good for wet surfaces such as a beach on damp grass. If the planned trail includes loose surfaces such as leaves or gravel a deeper tread design will work better. Dangers may exist if you choose hiking sandals when planning to hike a mountainous trail or a location, which may require climbing. For use other than level trails, hiking boots should be considered for comfort as well as safety.

Typically, expeditions are considered long hikes and will take their toll on you, and with some lasting two weeks or longer being prepared for most contingencies as well as packing light enough to be comfortable can be a challenge. The idea is not just to pack only light items, but also to pack the items you will need in your expedition camping gear.
