for hiking with children
Choose a route suited to your child’s age
The golden rule is to start with easy walks. For children under six, choose short circular routes with plenty of opportunities to stop, play and explore along the way.
Mountain weather can change quickly. Before setting off, always check the local forecast. Avoid starting too late in the day and always have an alternative plan if conditions deteriorate.
Stay hydrated and take regular breaks
Children tire more quickly when hiking. Bring plenty of water, snacks and plan enjoyable breaks to observe marmots, play in the forest or enjoy a picnic.
What should you pack?
For younger children, an ergonomic baby carrier for hiking is highly recommended.
