Author's tip
During the summer months, it's highly recommended to start your outdoor activities early in the morning. Mornings typically offer pleasant temperatures, allowing you to fully enjoy your excursion without the discomfort of intense heat. The air is crisp and invigorating, enhancing your senses and creating an ideal setting for immersing yourself in nature, thereby ensuring a more enjoyable and safer experience.

To adapt to the high temperatures we consider the following measures:

  • Choose light-coloured, loose, and breathable clothing made from natural fibres such as linen to stay cool. Wear a hat or cap to protect your face from the sun and sunglasses to shield your eyes from UV rays.
  • Use a sunscreen with a high sun protection factor (at least SPF 30) and reapply it regularly, especially if you are sweating.
