100%. I think people just think walking around your workplace/home is "enough" because you're technically getting your steps in, but it's easier to get 15k steps in when you're hiking vs working (depending on your job). There's some "cons" to hiking vs walking around familiar places, but it's usually recommended to get out of your comfort zone if you actually want to enjoy the task more instead of making yourself go crazy.
