Rock climbing is an activity in which participants climb up, down or across natural rock formations or artificial rock walls.

The goal is to reach the summit of a formation or the endpoint of a usually pre-defined route without falling.

Due to the length and extended endurance required and because accidents are more likely to happen on descent than ascent, Rock Climbers do not usually climb back down the route.

It is very rare for a climber to downclimb, especially on the larger multiple pitches (class III- IV and /or multi-day grades IV-VI climbs).

Professional Rock climbing competitions have the objectives of either completing the route in the quickest possible time or attaining the farthest point on an increasingly difficult route.

Scrambling, another activity involving the scaling of hills and similar formations, is similar to rock climbing.

However, rock climbing is generally differentiated by its sustained use of hands to support the climber's weight as well as to provide balance.

Kayaking is the use of a kayak for moving across water.

It is distinguished from canoeing by the sitting position of the paddler and the number of blades on the paddle.

A kayak is a low-to-the-water, canoe-like boat in which the paddler sits facing forward, legs in front, using a double-bladed paddle to pull front-to-back on one side and then the other in rotation.

Most kayaks have closed decks, although sit-on-top and inflatable kayaks are growing in popularity as well.

Hiking is the preferred term, in Canada and the United States, for a long, vigorous walk, usually on trails (footpaths), in the countryside, while the word walking is used for shorter, particularly urban walks.

On the other hand, in the United Kingdom, and the Republic of Ireland, the word "walking" is acceptable to describe all forms of walking, whether it is a walk in the park or backpacking in the Alps.

The word hiking is also often used in the UK, along with rambling (a slightly old-fashioned term), hillwalking, and fell walking (a term mostly used for hillwalking in northern England).

The term "bushwalking" is endemic to Australia, having been adopted by the Sydney Bush Walkers club in 1927.

In New Zealand a long, vigorous walk or hike is called tramping.

It is a popular activity with numerous worldwide, and studies suggest that all forms of walking have health benefits.

Fishing is the activity of trying to catch fish.

Fish are normally caught in the wild.

The term is not normally applied to catching farmed fish, or to aquatic mammals, such as whales where the term whaling is more appropriate.
