The same adventurous spirit which makes so many people feel the urge, even the need, to travel solo also compels many of those same people to explore the great outdoors. The overlap between those who enjoy travelling independently and those who enjoy outdoor activities is significant. If these descriptions apply to you, then you'll know why already. It's the feeling of total freedom you get.
Surely each of us can understand the appeal of 'me-time'? Even people who feel most comfortable in large groups, and even those who would never climb a mountain or kayak across a loch, can appreciate the enjoyment of time devoted to yourself and the feeling of freedom it brings. It also brings a sense of calm: nobody needs me, my phone is off, and this is my time.
That is the feeling you get travelling alone. It's also the feeling you get doing outdoor activities. In a city, lack of phone signal can be a real pain. On a mountain adventure, the realisation that you now have phone signal can be hugely disappointing: I was having an amazing escape for the day, and now the office is trying to get hold of me.
