Using these hashtags well

Use the trail name, then the region
#kedarkanthatrek reaches people planning that route, and #uttarakhandhiking widens it a little. A generic #nature tag adds little.
Share safety and season in the caption
Say the month, the difficulty and any permits needed. Hashtags bring other hikers to the post; those details make it useful to them.
Respect the place in your tags and text
If a trail is fragile or restricted, say so rather than pinning an exact location for crowds. Responsible-trekking tags show the habit you want others to follow.

Questions

What are good hashtags for hiking posts?

Combine a broad tag like #hiking with the trail, state and trek type. The narrow ones are where fellow hikers actually search.

Should I tag the exact trail location?

Tagging the trail name is useful for planners. For fragile or crowded spots, consider tagging the region only.

How many hashtags should a hiking post carry?

Five, the Instagram limit: the trail or peak, the region and the kind of hike.
