Terms of Service

Last updated: January 2026. The plain-English rules for using Overluking.

By using this website, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site. We have tried to write this in plain English, without the usual legal maze.

1. Who we are

OVERLUKING ("we", "us", "our") operates this website at overluking.com. You can reach us at hello@overluking.com.

2. What this site is

Overluking publishes trail guides, gear picks, and trip ideas for outdoor enthusiasts. All content is for general information only. It is not professional advice.

3. Outdoor safety

Hiking, camping, and other outdoor activities carry real risks. Weather changes. Trails close. Wildlife exists. You are responsible for your own safety.

Always check local conditions, know your limits, carry the essentials, and tell someone where you are going. Do not rely on this site alone to plan a trip.

4. Gear recommendations

We recommend gear based on research and what other people report. We do not guarantee that any product will work for you. Product quality, sizing, and suitability vary. Always read the manufacturer's instructions and reviews before you buy.

5. Affiliate links

Some links on this site are affiliate links. If you buy through one, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. This does not change what we recommend. For details, see our affiliate disclosure.

6. Your use of the site

You agree not to:

  • Copy, republish, or sell our content as your own.
  • Scrape the site automatically or overload it with requests.
  • Try to break, hack, or gain unauthorized access to anything.
  • Use the site for anything illegal.

You are welcome to share links to our pages, quote a short passage with credit and a link back, and tell your friends.

7. Our content

All text, images, and design on Overluking belong to us or are used with permission, unless stated otherwise. The Overluking name, wordmark, and design are our property.

8. Third-party links

We link to retailers, parks, and other websites. We do not control those websites and are not responsible for their content, policies, or how they handle your data.

9. Newsletter

If you subscribe to The Weekly View, you are agreeing to receive occasional emails from us. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in every email. We handle your email address as described in our privacy policy.

10. No warranty

The site is provided "as is". We try to keep it accurate and running, but we do not promise it will be perfect, uninterrupted, or free of mistakes.

11. Limits on our responsibility

To the extent allowed by law, we are not responsible for any loss or damage that results from using this site or relying on its content. This includes injuries, gear problems, trip issues, or missed opportunities.

12. Changes

We may update these terms from time to time. When we do, we will change the "Last updated" date at the top. Continuing to use the site after a change means you accept the new terms.

13. Which laws apply

These terms are governed by the laws of the United States, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute will be handled in the courts of the United States.
