The term is different in some other countries, e.g. in the UK they also use the term rambling, in Australia the term bushwalking and in New Zealand the term tramping. Trekking is a different term. It has to do with carrying load while hiking for at least a day. It is often also called backpacking and it sometimes involves also camping in the countryside.
