One thing that I may suggest is an area to show trips people have taken. Granted you have the forums for that, but do an article style post from one of your users. Let the users have the chance to be showcased on the main page of the site and it let's others see pics or get information about a place they may have never heard of. The more interaction with the user the faster you'll grow a community.

good luck

I happen to actually be a backpacker and outdoor enthusiast, I would like a site that listed actual trails along with locations and other information, this would have to be user generated obviously because you would be able to go to every trail but I would be interested in trail reviews from other site members along with some sort of database I could use to find new trails in my area of interest that I might want to go to.

if you don't have ideas on these or you feel you are not professional, then you can outsource all of this. i think freelancer can help you solve all of this.

If you need any help with content I might be able to help with that. I would suggest starting off just focussing on one area - Asia, Europe, America etc and then building your site up from there. I would do a rough guide of each area and then seperate guides including cheap places to stay, cheap eateries, cheap travel etc. You could also contact some bed and breakfasts in each area and offer to place their hotel on your site in exchange for a percentage of the bookings your site gains them? You could also do sections detailing tips for backpackers, things to pack, how to choose where to go. You could also make a forum enabling people to find other travelers to meet up with. If this helps feel free to contact me

You will use Social Media Optimization(Facebook, Tweeter, LinkedIn....) for generate the traffic.
