Vegan Snack Foods for National Parks Tours

Going outdoors was considered a healthy and productive thing to do prior to the pandemic. However, crowded public spaces aside, letting yourself feel the sun on your skin and the wind in your hair is a good practice to do. Even if you’re still technically in the confines of your home, you can stay on the balcony every morning or do stretches in the backyard, or do anything to expose your body to the heat and air of the outside world (without risking exposure). When it is safe to travel further than a few meters away from home again, a national park tour might be just the getaway experience that you need, since it allows you to exercise your body with hiking trips and energize your skin with sunlight. With that said, what kind of healthy vegan snacks can you bring on such a trip? Here are some suggestions.

Infinebalance’s Homemade fruit and nut bars

Dried fruits and nuts are great trail foods to eat while you’re walking amidst nature. They excite your taste buds and give you the energy to keep going. This vegan snack is a great combination of both trail snacks into one energetic bar. 

One Green Planet’s Super Power Chia Bread

In cases like this, “super power” doesn’t feel like an exaggeration. This chia bread recipe is great for any occasion, whether it’s a land tour or a home based side-snack. It fits well with hummus too, and maybe even other kinds of plant-based condiments. 

Minimalist Baker’s Vegan Gluten-Free Crackers

Like avocado, tofu and pasta, crackers are versatile vegan ingredients in terms of how they can be used. Pair with dip? Yum. Pair with savory filling? Also yum. These gluten-free crackers can be enjoyed with another savory vegan meal, or you can use them as quick bites for your future vegan national parks tours
