A Large Group of Hikers Having Drinks in a Field Beside a Haystack, 1931. 'Getting away from it all was...another feature of the time.

You might call it hiking, or rambling, but by any name it certainly wasn't a bad innovation'. From "Time To Remember - A New Era", 1931 (Reel 2); documentary about the world in the early 1930s.
