Safety Tips

1. Choose routes according to your physical and technical abilities, researching the area to visit, the accessibility of the trails and equipping yourself with adequate hiking maps.
2. Provide clothing and equipment appropriate to the effort and length of the hike and carry in your backpack what is needed for possible emergency situations and a first aid kit.
3. It is advisable not to undertake a mountain hike alone. In any case, inform someone of the route you intend to take, notifying your return.
4. Check weather forecasts and constantly observe the development of the weather.
5. When in doubt, turn back. Sometimes it is better to give up rather than find yourself in difficulty due to bad weather or having tackled difficulties beyond your strength, skills, and equipment.
6. Avoid unnecessarily leaving the path and taking shortcuts.
7. All listed routes develop in a natural environment. Walking them means accepting the risk of practicing a sport in nature.

Mountain hikes require specific clothing and equipment. Even for relatively short and easy outings, it is always better to be well equipped to avoid unpleasant surprises and to face unforeseen events such as, for example, a sudden storm or an energy drop.

What to bring for a mountain trekking?

In your backpack (for a day hike usually recommended is 25/30L) it is good to bring:

• water bottle (1L)
• snack (for example, dried fruit or chocolate)
• first aid kit
• windproof jacket
• a fleece sweater
• spare t-shirt and socks (preferably sealed in a plastic bag)
• worn or at least carried in the backpack a pair of long trousers
• hat
• sunscreen
• sunglasses
• gloves
• whistle to call for help in case of emergency

Wear shoes suitable for the route and season. The trail surface can be uneven or rough and a pair of hiking boots will protect you from sprains. A grassy slope, a rock slab or a steep path, if wet, can become dangerous without appropriate footwear.

Finally... don't forget the camera! It will be useful to capture the hike and the countless breathtaking views that Garda Trentino hides around every corner. If you want to share your memories with us you can use the hashtag #GardaTrentino
