    Mountaineering involves climbing to high points in mountainous regions. There are three main forms - rock climbing, snow and ice climbing, and mixed climbing. Mountaineering began in the 18th century in Chamonix, France when Horace-Bénédict de Saussure made the first recorded ascent of Mont Blanc in 1786. Preparing for hiking or trekking involves physical conditioning, trip planning, selecting the right equipment like backpacks, footwear, trekking poles, first aid supplies, maps, and more. Basic hiking skills include setting pace, rhythm, and following safety reminders to ensure one's well-being.
