Nature hashtags for Instagram

Calling all outdoor adventurers, use the recommended hashtags listed below to make your nature and travel posts on Twitter, Instagram, and other social media visible to those with similar interests! By tagging your photos with relevant hashtags, you’re able to grow your following organically.

Looking at the Instagram algorithm, photos that don’t get much engagement within a short period of time after they are posted, fall lower down on followers’ feeds. Therefore, if you want your outdoor photos to have a chance of standing out amongst the rest, check out some of the hashtags on this list. 

 

Why use hashtags?

Hashtags are important for a number of reasons. They allow you to increase the amount of engagement with your followers; provide you with an opportunity to build your brand and grow your following; give you a way to show support for particular issues and provide context for your social media content.

The important thing to remember about hashtags is that they form part of a two-way conversation. By utilising them in your posts, you allow people who search for a particular hashtag to find your content. Given that Instagram allows users to follow a particular hashtag, it’s now more important than ever to use them on your posts. Often on Instagram, longer captions aren’t always the most effective. Instead, using a hashtag allows you to contextualise what you’re posting about without creating repetitive captions for each post.
