We also have suitable trekking socks for our smallest explorers - because good equipment is essential. You can read four useful tips for your hike with children here.

 

Tip 1: Hiking buddies

Your children are not quite as keen on hiking as you are? Then it might be useful if you allow your children to take a couple of friends with them. Or how about taking another family with you? With friends of the same age by your side, a hike becomes an exploratory foray and fun is guaranteed for all participants.

Tip 2: Allow more time

When hiking with children, always allow more time. Ideally, you should take a short break every hour or so at attractive places. For example, at fireplaces, lakes or streams. You can bathe, dam up the water and observe the animals and plants. It is also important to take breaks on the way down, when your legs are tired and your concentration wanes.

Tip 3: Equip children optimally

Even the smallest hikers need good equipment for wind and weather. The rucksack should not be too heavy and, if possible, the child should also have a say in what it wants to wear. Because then it is much more fun. A change of clothes, headgear, sunglasses and sun cream should also be included.

Tip 4: Optimal footwear and matching socks

The hiking boots should be equipped with good tread soles, and the socks should be high quality and comfortable. Our Globi trekking socks are ideal for this. They are mostly made of wool and guarantee optimal moisture regulation. The chained sock toe and the plush in the foot area ensure a pleasant wearing comfort to avoid friction or irritation in the toe and foot area.
