Mountaineering is a popular recreational activity that entails pleasure in conquering peaks, the beauty of mountainous areas, overcoming difficulty with others because usually hikers are in the group. As the start date of hiking is taken August 8, 1786 when French physician Michel Gabriel Paccard and guide Jacques Balmat climbed to the top of Mont Blanc (4,810 m). This rise was prompted by the Swiss scientist Horace-Bénédict de Saussure. It was in the Alps that the first hiking tours of the unspoiled peaks were organized, with the presence of local guides. While these tour guides have a long tradition, there are major changes in commercial hiking today.
