Little Finland

Description

Clothing appropriate for the season and weather conditions (cold, hot, wet, etc.).

Hiking shoes suitable for the terrain (even for children!).

Telescoping hiking poles (useful for stability and to relieve pressure on the joints).

Cell phone and spare battery, if needed.

Check the general and local weather conditions to ensure there is no precipitation. Familiarize yourself with the approach hike, the elevation of the route, the estimated travel time, and possible escape routes (IGN map, GPS, guidebook, etc.).

Assess potential risks by consulting mountain professionals, mountain huts, and lodges.

Inform a loved one of your plans and contact them again if there are any changes: departure and return times, number of participants along with each person’s phone number, vehicle(s), and parking.

Avoid going alone; use equipment appropriate for the activity, properly adjusted and in good condition, such as a headlamp, a complete first-aid kit, a survival blanket, etc.
