HIPPIE
TRAIL



The hippie trail (also the overland is the name given to the overland
journey taken by members of the hippie subculture and others from the
mid-1950s to the late 1970s between Europe and South Asia, mainly
Pakistan, India and Nepal. The hippie trail was a form of alternative
tourism, and one of the key elements was travelling as cheaply as
possible, mainly to extend the length of time away from home. The term
"hippie" became current from the mid- to late 1960s; "beatnik" was the
previous term which had gained currency in the second half of the 1950s.

In every major stop of the hippie trail, there were hotels, restaurants
and cafés that catered almost exclusively to Westerners, who networked
with each other as they travelled east and west. The hippies tended to
spend more time interacting with the local population than traditional
sightseeing tourists.
