< Clothes for “The Dolomites “>
Compared to city trips you need to pack more functional clothes due to the weather conditions which can change very quick in this region. You should invest into some good outdoor clothes which are comfortable but also easy to handle. Plan for only a few days, after or in between wash your clothes – this ensures to pack lightweight.
T-Shirts (mid layer) – We recommend using breathable sport shirts
Hiking Pants, with the option to turn into a short pant
Rain Pants strongly recommended
It is essential to bring sturdy shoes and a wind proof jacket
Fleece Jacket (mid layer) – highly recommended for colder parts and the evenings!
Breathable, waterproof Jacket as shell layer or a light Rain jacket
Scarf – for cold and windy parts
Warm Hat
Sun glasses very important not to forget
Good Hiking Boots, preferably waterproof
Hiking Poles are a huge asset when trekking the trails.
Poles do help decrease the forces placed on the body.
This is good news for those individuals who have previously injured hips or knees and for those who hike with a heavy pack.
Trekking Backpack – e.g. 50l internal frame backpacks are great for multiple day hikes,
Hiking Daypack, if you plan short hikes
Drybag – keeps your technical equipment dry
ZipLocs, helps you organizing
Energy Bars
Great app for mapping your hike is AllTrails
