Safety advice

1.        Choose routes suitable for your physical and technical abilities. Gather information about the area you will visit and the trail conditions and obtain a detailed trekking map.

2.        Wear clothes and bring equipment suitable for the difficulty and length of your route. Carry emergency equipment in your backpack, including a first aid kit.

3.        Do not hike alone in the mountains. In any case, inform someone where you are going and let them know when you return.

4.        Check the weather forecast before leaving and always keep an eye on the weather.

5.        If in doubt, turn back. It is better to give up than risk bad weather or face difficulties beyond your strength, skills, and equipment.

6.        Do not leave marked trails and do not take shortcuts.

7.        All the walks described take place in a natural environment and their use is therefore at your own risk.

It is not entirely possible to avoid inaccurate or incorrect information, given how quickly environmental and weather conditions can change.

You must wear the right clothing and bring the proper equipment when hiking in the mountains. Even on relatively short and easy outings, make sure to carry everything necessary to avoid problems if things take an unexpected turn, such as a storm breaking out or a sudden loss of energy.

What to bring when you go hiking?

Your backpack (for a day trip a capacity of 25/30L should suffice) should contain:

• water bottle (1L)
• snacks (e.g. mixed dried fruit or chocolate)
• first aid kit
• windbreaker jacket
• fleece
• change of T-shirt and socks (in a plastic bag)
• make sure to wear or at least carry a pair of long trousers
• hat
• sunscreen
• sunglasses
• gloves
• whistle to attract attention in case of emergency

Make sure to wear shoes suitable for the trail and season. The terrain can become rough and rocky underfoot and a pair of hiking boots will protect you from sprains. When wet, a grassy slope, a rock slab or a steep path can be dangerous unless you wear the proper footwear.

And finally... don't forget to bring your camera! You'll need it to capture the stunning views you will encounter throughout Garda Trentino. And if you want, you can share your memories with us on #GardaTrentino.
