    Does anyone else love walking barefoot in nature? Mud, dirt tracks, forests etc...

    Love walking barefoot on mud and freshly cut crass. I really like having a nice green tinge to my soles.

    I'm fairly certain that every barefooter on the planet would answer this question with a resounding "YES!" I'd also be willing to bet that approximately 98% would express a preference for barefooting in nature over man made environments.

    I'm a fan of nature although I like city barefooting much more.

    ALL the time.

    I regularly walk on all the natural surfaces one would expect in Maine: grass, forest floor duff like pine and spruce needles and leaves; moss and bare soil and sand. Brooks, beaches, both lake and sea. And the expanses of solid granite.

    Sometimes snow, too.

    Maybe I Missed It In A Previous Post, But If You Don't Mind Me Asking,

    What In The Hell Did You Do To Yourself...??

    In One Of Those Photos You Have Both Feet Immobilsed...:eek:.

    One Can Only Assume, When You Smash Yourself Up, You Don't

    Do It In Half Measures...:D.

    Broke my left foot, and damaged nerves which are an ongoing issue. Twisted my right ankle at one stage, neednd a boot so I could still walk on my crutches while the left was in a cast . Not so good for barefooting though!

    Hi Meg,

    walking barefoot in nature is a great thing. Over the Ascension Day weekend i did hike with friends in the northern Vosges mountains, wonderful trails on forest, sandy and sandstone rock terrain. I made all three and a half days on my bare feet and did enjoy it very much!

    Oh absolutely. I love feeling the Earth beneath my feet, the mud swishing between my toes, soft tickly grass. Nothing like it.

    I agree. I went for a walk by the river this afternoon. This is the result:-

    Yes - a bit messy. My crutches kept sinking in the mud, so my cast got pretty muddy as well.

    I enjoy walking along a deserted beach barefoot and walking through damp grass

    love all the terrains , particularly the deep of woods and muddy paths. to be honest i go looking for mud... never miss a patch of fresh clay :p grass is gentle, terrain covered with branches is spicy and mud is blissful. frozen grass feels so unreal ! moss is nature's own velvet and thorns, yes, happen. i can never have enough of hiking barefoot.

    Yes i like very much! Especially in a forest or along a beach where the tide goes out for miles.

    To be honest though i love barefooting in the city more. Despite all the dirt, the smooth surfaces just feel so good.
