How was the hike vs How was hiking

Both phrases are correct and commonly used. 'How was the hike?' refers to a specific hiking trip or experience. 'How was hiking?' is more general and asks about the overall activity of hiking. The choice between the two depends on whether you are referring to a particular hike or the activity in general.
