Practical mountain advice
What to wear for hiking in the Pyrenees
Mountain weather changes quickly. A simple layering system helps you adapt throughout the day.
Three useful layers
Start with a breathable base layer, add insulation, then carry a waterproof and windproof outer layer.
Legs and feet
Choose comfortable trousers or shorts and walking shoes suited to the terrain.
Sun, wind and cold
Bring sun protection, a hat and light gloves when conditions require them.
Keep a complete set in your pack
Even in summer, do not leave your warm or waterproof layer behind.
