Of course, before a hiking tour parents frequently worry about whether they have packed everything and whether their child is properly dressed. Especially in the changeable weather of spring and autumn it is important to make sure your child is not too cold when out hiking. Here the same “onion” principle applies as it does for adults: several layers of clothing that can be put on or taken off, depending on the temperature.
Remember sunscreen as well as proper clothing: applying enough sunscreen (don’t forget the child’s neck in particular) is a must on every hiking tour. A sun hat or multi-functional scarf also provides good protection and should always be included.
