Hiking is a popular outdoor activity that allows people to enjoy nature while getting exercise. Hikers often focus on beautiful and eye-catching scenes, such as sunrises and sunsets. However, some hikers prefer to slow their pace and pay attention to the small details, like a butterfly resting on a flower. This careful way of observing nature has a name: land snorkeling. The term was created by American artists Clyde Aspevig and his wife Carol Guzman.

  健行是一項廣受歡迎的戶外活動,讓人們可以在享受大自然的同時鍛鍊身體。健行者常專注於日出和日落等美麗迷人的景色。然而,有些健行者更喜歡放慢腳步,注意細微之處,例如在花朵上休憩的蝴蝶。這種仔細觀察自然的方式有一個名稱:陸地浮潛。該詞由美國藝術家克萊德.阿斯佩維格和他的妻子卡蘿.古茲曼創造。
