Tips for your excursion

Tips for your excursion: these are the reasons why hiking boots are important

What a fabulous idea – hiking from sunrise to sunset, taking a break from everyday life in the countryside. Beginners should look to get the right equipment before setting off on their first major trekking trip. This does not have to be an all-in adventure package. Nevertheless, it does include a good pair of hiking boots when the path suddenly gets rougher and the hike lasts several hours.
The reason for this is simple enough. You’ll be significantly more comfortable and safer with the right hiking boots. Suitable footwear will prevent you from getting blisters, and you won’t twist your ankle, which may be the case in trainers, for instance. This is due to a specially treaded sole and the fact that the footwear is shaped in a particular way. More key information on choosing the right footwear is available in our hiking footwear guide.

More tips on outdoor equipment

Besides appropriate footwear, a suitable backpack is one of the most important pieces of equipment for your next outdoor adventure. Beginners, too, will soon manage to pack their trekking backpack correctly with the help of a couple of basic tips. Essentially, this means: heavy items at the bottom or close to the back, important items at the top or in separate compartments. Then everything is packed away safely and yet is quick and easy to access without have to dig deep. More tips and detailed information are available in our guide on “Packing a backpack” .
