Commonly described as waking outdoors on a trail for recreational enjoyment,
hiking is a great pastime. Whether you are exploring hidden paths and mountainous terrain or venturing out into the city without a map hiking and walking is a great way to keep fit and explore the country.
Getting outside and pounding the pavement may be easy on your pocket, but not so easy on your feet. Having the correct footwear to suit your travels is of the utmost importance. Mountain Warehouse
hiking and walking boots are designed for your feet, offering ankle and arch support along with cushioning and hard wearing outsoles.
Our brilliant range of
hiking and walking clothing is ideal for getting outdoors. Our range of lightweight walking
trousers and shorts are comfortable and cool against the skin. For comfort and style our range of
shirts, tee shirts and tops are the perfect additions to your wardrobe, many of which have been designed with high wicking properties to draw moisture away from your skin and quickly absorbed by the fabric, the quick drying composition of the fabric helps to keep you feeling dry while out on the move. On days where a bit of extra warmth or protection is required a Mountain Warehouse
waterproof jacket or
base layer will do the job.
When heading outdoors our range of hiking and walking
accessories is second to none. The Mountain Warehouse range of hiking and
walking socks has been designed to offer support and comfort when out walking. To help look after your feet our socks have been made with extra padding on the arch and heel, they also have smooth toe seams to prevent rubbing.
Whether heading out for a day or a month you will need a
rucksack, at Mountain Warehouse our range varies from daypacks through to large rucksacks with a capacity of more than 65 litres. We even have range for the kids with our smallest daypack holding 8 litres.
When the going gets tough our
hiking and walking poles are a must have accessory. Our walking and hiking poles are lightweight and compact, the size can be adjusted to suit your own specific requirements and the spring base and rubber ferrules act to absorb shock and add grip and stability. To add to your hiking experience you may want to think about other
accessories and gadgets such as torches, flasks, rucksack liners and compasses – all of which can be found at Mountain Warehouse.
