Summer is almost here. Or we should say, that summer is here, but the actual weather must’ve been late to wake up.

As with any change in season, its also accompanied with a change in possible activities. The increase in temperature also comes with changes in nature. Some of these activities are popular to many. Like hiking along nature trails, walking along the country side or strolling around the shore.

Here we have some of the essentials while going on hiking and nature walks. From what to bring in your leisurely walk to an adventure in the forest and mountains. 

Preparation

  • Weather : Check the weather forecast in advance. Prediction has largely improved and is considerably more accurate compared to years ago.
  • Company : Who you are going with. Check with them, confirm if it’s a go or no go. If you are going alone, make sure to tell someone in case of emergency. This includes the location and possibly how long you are going to be gone.
  • Destination : Check for announcements on the location of your activity. If there are emergencies like closure, wildflife dangers and other similar events you might want to postpone it.

Essentials / What to Bring

  • Hiking and camping gear
  • Clothing
  • Footwear
  • Food and water. Specially water. Summer, while good for long walks, you have to be aware and keep yourself hydrated.
  • Emergency and first aid kit. This might include signal flares aside from the usual medicine kit.
  • Bug spray or insect repellent. Depending on location, this can be an issue. Allergic reactions to bees is no joke.

Choosing the right backpack

The right backpack can be tricky sometimes. While it heavily depends on how long you are going out. Sometimes, it can also be about the nature of the items and the length of the activity.

Maelstrom Hiking Backpack

Highly durable with plenty of pockets. These two things are most of the time enough for someone to buy a bag. Specially children, they love pockets, the more the merrier. Another thing this bag has going for it is the comfortable cushion it provides the shoulder, making long walks at ease as you focus on the adventure instead of the discomfort. While we received some feedback on the straps about making it stronger, this also depends on how much you fill it with.

MOLLE Assault Pack

You might think this pack is rigid, judging from its squarish design. But it’s designed like that for “tactical” purpose. For critical features such as durability, adaptability, and functionality. With it’s main compartment being able to open like a suitcase, you could easily take in or out equipment and gears. When you talk about this backpack, it’s more on the functional side rather than the fashion. But since fashion is subjective, who could say this isn’t.

Woogwin Travel Duffel Bag

A bag purpose-built for storage and is waterproof. In short, for the beach and the pool, or any place with water, water that you don’t want inside your bag. With a 60-liter capacity and a shoe compartment, you could not only bring it to the beach but also at the gym.
