In Xiangfan, Hubei Province, more than 2,000 high school students have been hiking and studying for 80 miles.

Hiking, simply put, is a long walk, and is generally purposeful for rural wilderness exercise. This relatively simple movement threshold is extremely low, the form is free, there are feet and willingness to start, along the way to watch the landscape, chant the wind and moon, contact feelings, exercise the will, is loved by many people.
Hiking is also valued by educational institutions. Mao Dun said in his memoirs, "The Road I Walked: The Student Era":
There is a "hike" every semester, and I gladly participated.
In February 1938, Changsha Provisional University began to perform a great "hike" in the history of Chinese education. Due to the national crisis, the temporary university decided to relocate to Kunming, and the third westward migration route was carried out by the Xiangqian dian tour group. More than 200 male students from Tsinghua, Peking University and Nankai University, 11 volunteer professors and teaching assistants formed a team, starting from Changsha, trekking through Xiangxi and Guizhou, and going straight to Kunming, originally planned to walk 688 kilometers, the actual walk reached 1300 kilometers, which took 68 days to arrive.
The long distance and time of walking, the hardships and difficulties along the way can be imagined. The school also made a request to the students to:
In order to learn more about the people's feelings, to investigate the terroir, to collect specimens, to exercise the body, so that the migration itself is education.
This is a great initiative that will forever go down in history and inspire future generations.
Nowadays, we often see news reports of hiking activities held by high schools around the world, such as Anhui Langxi high school students using hiking inspiration to prepare for the college entrance examination, Hubei Xiangfan high school students hiking and studying, Jiangsu Normal University Affiliated School, Shenyang Tongze, Guizhou Weining, etc., high schools across the country have outdoor hiking activities, which can be described as a long history and are in the ascendant.

How does the hike work? What will happen? How is the night hike different? Whenever I see a report on a campus hike, I think of a movie about it and can't stop smiling.
Based on the famous school event "Walking Festival" at her alma mater, Ibaraki Prefectural Mito Daiichi Senior High School, Japanese female writer Onshi Onshi wrote a novel called "Hiking at Night", which was later made into a movie of the same name and released on September 30, 2006.
This Japanese film restores the details and moving aspects of high school hiking activities, and it is worth a brush.

The same is to show campus life, juvenile growth, Japan has "Battle Royale" such a desperate and terrifying movie, extremely exaggerated, extremely ferocious and cruel, so that the viewer is terrified, breathless, the darkness of human nature is unobstructed, and it has gone to an extreme. And "Night Hike" is young and pure, like a narrative poem, the rhythm is slow, telling the story of the school life of adolescent students.
At kitano High School's walking festival, the whole school students carried out an 80-kilometer circular hike, in the walk, at night, under the stars, all the warmth and beauty like the pure laughter of the girls spread out little by little.

The big plot of "Night Hiking" is very simple, recording the beginning and end of the walking festival of a certain year at Kitano High School, which at first glance looks like a documentary. We saw the school creative and responsible, with a rigorous planning of the annual hikes: the determination of routes, the arrangement of lunch and dinner, the arrangement of rest places, and the escort of ambulances along the way.
The high school students were full of enthusiasm and set off in line, the scene was real and grand, and the atmosphere of campus life was strong.
In the first 60 kilometers of class-based group walking, with the eyes of the heroine high school senior Takako, you can see the lively, funny, upward and innocent side of the youthful students. It's hilarious.
Coming out of the tense and dull daily study life, they are young and enthusiastic, not afraid of long-distance travel, and full of spirit. During the journey, everyone encouraged and helped each other, did not give up in the most tired moments, challenged themselves, and left an unforgettable and profound experience for their youth, which was touching.
On the country road, the sunset is setting in the west, and a long group of high school students throw off their arms and walk freely, which is a rare scenery, making people feel like seeing their youthful self.

This film not only depicts the big scenes, but also goes deep into the hearts of high school students, connects with social life, and thus cleverly sets up suspense, telling the students' adolescence family, friendship, and love delicately and freshly.
No matter how long and difficult the 80-kilometer hike is, it's too short for Takako, about to graduate from high school, and she's been in the same class with her half-brother Sirirong for three years and has never said a word.
Takako has always had a feeling of guilt in her heart, as if she and her mother have taken away Xi Lirong's happiness, thinking that her brother hates her. Xi Li Rong, due to his special life experience, his personality is also very introverted and dull. He focused on learning to forget the trauma of his childhood and did not take the initiative to take care of his sister.
However, he is also secretly concerned about Takako, after all, blood is thicker than water.
Stills from "Hiking at Night"
Graduating soon, if the misunderstanding between the two is not eliminated during the hike, there may be no chance. Takako is determined to fulfill her wish on this night no matter what.
However, Takako has never had the opportunity to come into contact with Xi Ri rong alone. No one knows the secret between them. Everyone mistakenly believes that Takako and XiLi rong are secretly in love with each other, and decide to help Xi Lijun and Guizi. As a result, all kinds of careful thoughts, all kinds of small misunderstandings, in the journey, became particularly cute and funny.
In the end, Takako successfully and her brother Ice relieved her former suspicions and talked. Strange rockers, energetic ponytail girls, suddenly appeared good friends and brothers, and finally held hands with a shy crush on the two... Together, we marched triumphantly to the finish line.
For Takako, everything is too beautiful! Brother and classmates, they will be admitted to college together, the future life, I don't know how good it is!

Every time I watched "Hiking at Night", the warm feelings were wrapped around my heart, which swept away my depression for a while and was very healing.
Thinking back to the days when we were students with our friends on Wednesdays, we didn't seem to talk a lot, but often sneaked out together.
I remember that there was a bridge on the middle school campus, and next to the bridge was a large tree with lush branches and leaves, and even the stars were obscured at night. One night, we stayed quietly on the bridge for a long time, the moon was like a wash, everything was silent, I suddenly stretched out my hands and leaned on the railing to look at the sky. Wednesday exclaimed, "Don't fall! As he said that his hand had reached out and pulled me, I grinned indifferently.
Later, in the moonlight, we ran to the beach by the river to walk up, and made many marks on the beach, as if it happened in a dream. More often, we walked together on the country roads, looking at the lake, looking at the trees, looking at the flowers, looking at the fields, watching the animals, and sometimes being scared away by the farm dogs.
Oh, and there's a detail in "Hiking at Night" where a girl is chased by a dog and yells while running desperately. All the people laughed kindly, and I watched the movie and laughed too.
A long walk is indeed a wonderful thing.
Can be used as a special kind of relaxation and rest.
You can exercise your body and train your willpower.
Can relieve anxiety.
It allows you to soak up the sun, get close to nature, and enjoy the wonderful scenery.
You can open your heart, communicate with teachers and friends, and broaden your thinking.
Many of life's good memories are related to walking, especially those who have hiked together at night.
