Conveniently, children move around enough during hikes to generate their own inner warmth. But, when break time arrives, they love to plunge into the snow. The best approach is to take several short breaks to prevent anyone from starting to freeze. If you end up taking a long break or the weather turns very cold due to wind and a lack of sunshine, how about starting a snowball fight? Such a battle will certainly lift spirits and generate some inner warmth. Of course, every hiking rucksack needs a thermos jug filled with warm tea or children’s punch.
Children certainly know when they get too hot. Our inner warmth is not their form of inner warmth.
In addition to inner warmth, the right clothing and the right footwear play a key role during winter hikes with children. A relaxing hike can quickly turn into an ordeal if children get too hot or too cold. By using the right clothing and applying the layering principle, you can prevent children from overheating or freezing.
First layer
Let’s start with some thin leggings and thin long-sleeve shirts. Try to avoid cotton if you can. It absorbs moisture and dries slowly. You are guaranteed to get cold. You will be better off if you wear clothing made of Merino wool or polyester.
Second layer
Your clothing of choice here includes some comfortable pants, like jogging pants, as well as a sweater or a fleece jacket that you can open if necessary.
Third layer
The last layer should consist of a snow suit or a winter jacket with snow pants. And don’t forget your gloves, hat and scarf. And be sure to take along some sunscreen and sunglasses on sunny days.

Several points have to be kept in mind when you select the right footwear for winter hikes.
The footwear must keep children’s feet dry and warm. This is why you should make sure that the shoes you purchase have a waterproof and breathable GORE-TEX lining and a layer of insulation. Soles that include large studs and grooves on the heel and toe provide good support in the snow. The boots should not feel like a “ball and chain” on the feet. They should feel as light as possible. The wearer must be comfortable in the footwear and be able to move around easily in it.
« Winter boots should never be too narrow. The result could be cold feet if they are. You will be better off if you purchase footwear that is a size too large for this reason. »
Comme d’habitude, bien préparer son excursion est la clé pour garder les enfants motivés tout au long de la randonnée.
D’ordinaire trop ennuyeux, les sentiers forestiers conviennent parfaitement à la randonnée hivernale, en particulier si vous avez emporté votre luge. Randonner sur et à travers la neige est difficile, surtout pour les enfants. De ce fait, ne vous aventurez pas en trop haute altitude. Peut-être y aura-t-il un refuge sur le chemin. Une soupe chaude réchauffera vite les petits glaçons. De plus, elle saura leur remonter le moral.
Mais le meilleur dans la randonnée sur neige, c’est bien sûr de pouvoir faire de la luge. Là encore, les sentiers forestiers enneigés sont tout à fait indiqués. En général, ils sont juste assez pentus pour que la luge glisse sans prendre trop de vitesse. Détournez-vous cependant des chemins verglacés, car le danger est réel.
« Lors de vos préparatifs, rappelez-vous que les jours sont bien plus courts en hiver ! Attention donc à ne pas partir trop tard. »
