Although it is rather dangerous to go on solo hikes, and many people will tell you that it's a bad idea; It's truly adventure at it's best!
With the prevalence of iPods these days, it would be silly to hike alone without one. Below is my current playlist for solo hikes. I am into a lot of heavy metal and other forms of hard rock, but I think you will find some of these choices to be quite motivating on your way up the mountain of your choice:.
The Acacia Strain - JFC
Rush - Tom Sawyer
Slayer - Angel of Death
Anterrabe - How Joey Got His Groove Back
Every Time I Die: Ebolorama
Nonpoint - What A Day
Biohazard - Resist
Biohazard - Switchback
Sevendust - Waffle
Nothingface - Grinning
If you like really aggressive music that will virtually propel you to the summit of any mountain, big or small, I would recommend you give these songs a home in your iPod.

When I'm hiking alone someplace super scenic I often listen to classical music. Sounds corny, I know, but it can lead to some emotionally peaceful moments for me.
ReplyDeleteI love listening to new age music while hiking alone to scenic places as well. Since nature is more peaceful, I prefer enjoying peaceful music like Enya, Vangelis, Mark Isham, Ray, etc
ReplyDeleteAggressive music can be a great factor in a motivated hike just like working out. Both are proven to be beneficial but to each his or her own.
