THE OVERVIEW

About A Short Hike

A Short Hike is an exploration adventure set around Hawk Peak, where walking, climbing and gliding offer different routes toward the summit. Players can follow trails or wander off them to find treasures and meet other hikers. Fishing and swimming provide optional diversions, with a soundtrack that changes as the player explores. The PC edition lists separate Windows, macOS and Linux minimum requirements; its older Windows specification must be read alongside Steam’s newer client operating-system requirement.
