Planning A Trek? Here's A Clothing Guide For Beginners

First of all congrats on a successful trek plan that’ll hopefully not be cancelled this time. While planning a trip, we pre-plan everything from accommodation, to travel and eatery. However, one thing we often overlook is what clothes we need to carry. Weather on the mountains is highly unpredictable, therefore, you must have all the essentials packed to prepare yourself for the uncertainties.

What To Wear For Trekking According To Weather

When choosing trekking clothing, it's important to look for something more than just a loose fit that doesn't restrict our movement.

What To Wear For Trekking In Spring?

Although Spring is pleasant weather to move out, every season on a mountain can come with its own set of challenges.

• A durable waterproof jacket with a membrane might come in handy to protect you against spring showers and chilly weather in the higher sections of the trails.
• Thermal trekking clothing underneath might be useful when you reach the top.
• Keep accessories like hats, scarves, and gloves, especially when hiking high mountain ranges.

What To Wear For Trekking In Summer?

• Trekking clothes for Summer should effectively wick away moisture and ensure thermal comfort.
• Forget about cotton and choose a sports blouse from quick-drying synthetic material. A few kilometres in Trek and you will be sweltering in heat. Synthetic material can help keep the moisture away and make the rest of your adventure comfortable.
• Trekking pants with zip-off legs will also work perfectly.

What To Wear For Trekking In Winter?

• A high-quality winter clothing for trekking is a must. This might include Warm and breathable thermal underwear, a sweatshirt, a fleece pullover or a merino wool jumper, a trekking jacket with a membrane and durable and windproof trekking pants.
• Don’t forget warm gloves, hats and neck warmers.
