Nature is calling
Nature is calling and we are drawn out into the mountains, forests and valleys. Whether it's hiking, rock climbing, or camping, outdoor activities are a great way to experience nature and seek adventure. But before we embark on the adventure, we should consider a few important things to stay safe and sustainable.
-
Planning and Preparation: Before heading out into the great outdoors, you should carefully plan your route and learn about the weather and local conditions. Also check if there are any special rules or permits you need. Pack only the essentials and make sure that your backpack is not too heavy.
-
Gear and Clothing: Invest in quality and durable gear and clothing that can withstand the demands of nature. A waterproof and breathable jacket and pants and sturdy shoes are essential. Don't forget to regularly condition and waterproof your gear and clothing to make them last longer.
-
Safety: Always think about your safety and the safety of others. Let friends or family know your itinerary and your expected return date. Carry a first aid kit with you and find out about basic first aid measures. Avoid dangerous situations and pay attention to warning signs and notices.
-
Sustainability: Enjoy nature, but leave no trace. Take your rubbish with you and be careful not to disturb plants or animals. Use eco-friendly products, such as biodegradable soap, and don't use chemicals in natural waters.
-
Outdoor wear waterproofing: You can waterproof your outdoor wear and the environment at the same time. Choose an environmentally friendly waterproofing spray that does not affect the breathability of the material. This means your gear lasts longer and you save water by washing it less.
With these tips and tricks you are ready for a safe and sustainable outdoor experience. Enjoy nature and create unforgettable memories!
