What is nature hiking at Quechua?

The aim of Decathlon and Quechua is to make sport accessible and sustainable for as many people as possible.

We are passionate about nature hiking, it shapes our lives and our daily routine.

This sport involves walking on natural flat or hilly trails for a day (such as in forests, countryside, or along the coast). It includes your weekly walks as well as day-long discovery hikes.

It brings physical and mental well-being, is accessible to everyone, regardless of age, gender, social background, place of residence, etc...

But to offer you suitable products, it is essential to test the products throughout their development. These tests ensure that the products meet your expectations.


The objective: Functional, usage, and long-term tests for nature hiking textiles and footwear

Co-creation is now at the heart of our concerns; we believe in collective intelligence, where everyone can contribute by sharing their opinion.

You will find numerous test proposals throughout the year.

Do you enjoy going for walks in nature?

Then, embark on the Decathlon adventure by answering our questionnaires to participate in the tests, and most importantly, have fun!
