No rabies exposure: Just hiking doesn't count as a 'rabies exposure'. Primarily rabies is transmitted from the bite of a rabid animal. Very rarely, a scratch is enough to do the job. If you didn't come into contact with any animals, then you are at zero risk of rabies. Your immune system actually is working in the background all the time, so I would trust that... True bats may transmit rabies but you were not exposed
