30 curated hashtags

Travel hashtags for Pinterest

Travel tags work best when they describe the type of trip or content: #travelitinerary, #roadtrip, #packinglist. Add a place tag for the destination you are covering, such as the country or city, because destination is the first thing planners search.

Hashtags versus keywords on Pinterest: hashtags are optional here. Pinterest search leans on the words in your pin title, description, board name and the text on the image, so a clear keyword phrase does far more than any tag. If you use hashtags, add two to five relevant ones at the end of the description. These tags are curated ideas with no volume data, and they tend to matter more on Instagram and TikTok.

How to use travel hashtags on a pin

The sets below are general so they fit any blog. Add one or two destination tags of your own to each pin, and drop tags that do not fit the post. A pin about packing does not need #beachvacation.

Always add the place. A Rome itinerary pin should carry #rome and #italytravel next to one or two format tags like #travelitinerary. The place tag is the one most likely to match what a reader searches.

Example pin description

Three days in Lisbon for first timers: trams, viewpoints, pastel de nata and the best sunset spots, plus where to stay. #lisbon #portugaltravel #travelitinerary

Travel hashtags to avoid

Avoid tags for places you are not covering just because they are popular, and skip vague tags like #travelgoals on itinerary pins. A Lisbon guide tagged #paris will disappoint the people who click it, and that mismatch does nothing for your account.

The words before the hashtags do the real work. Find phrases for them in the Pinterest keywords for travel list, generate more tags from your own topic with the Pinterest hashtag generator, and write the full description with the description generator.

Travel hashtags FAQ

How many travel hashtags should a pin have?

Two to five is plenty: one or two place tags and one to three format or trip type tags. More tags do not help and make the description look cluttered.

Should I use #wanderlust on Pinterest?

It is a popular community tag but very broad. Use it sparingly and prefer tags that describe the content, like #travelitinerary or #packinglist.

Do travel hashtags replace keywords?

No. Write the destination and trip type in your pin title and description first. Hashtags are an optional extra at the end.

Should I tag the season of a trip?

Yes, when the advice depends on it, like a winter packing list or a summer itinerary. Seasonal tags such as #wintertravel help readers planning for that time of year, and they remind you to publish the pin a couple of months ahead.
