Trekking is a long journey undertaken by people on foot in areas where there are usually no means of transport. People may choose to trek for many reasons including sports and maybe trek high on a mountain, hill, or in some adverse weather conditions like in deserts As people go for hiking they will have to trek for some couple of kilometres as they go up the mountains and hills this is because there will be no means of transport other than just doing it using your feet.
Trekking is more similar to hiking and the difference may just be treks are longer than hikes. In general trekking trails are also characterised by longer and more remote areas that that are not inhabited by people and mostly wild animals. While some scholars define climbing as also mountaineering being a sport of mountain climbing and trekking up mountains for different reasons. Mountaineering or climbing began long time ago as the attempt of human beings to reach the highest point of unclimbed big mountains and figure out what lies beneath it.
