What do I need to bring?
For a comfortable and safe cross-country skiing experience of 1.5 hours, the focus should still be on warmth and mobility, with extra attention to your hands, head, and core. Here's an adapted guide for cross-country skiing attire:
- Breathable Base Layers: Start with moisture-wicking thermal underwear. Cross-country skiing is an aerobic activity, so choose a base layer that provides warmth but also breathes well to prevent overheating.
- Jacket and Pants: Unlike downhill skiing, cross-country skiing generates more body heat due to its aerobic nature, so super heavy insulation isn't necessary.
- Insulated Gloves or Mittens: Your hands need to be warm and flexible. Choose gloves or mittens that are insulated but not too bulky.
- Socks: These should be warm. Also wearing two socks might be good idea on colder days.
- Headwear: A hat is essential. It should cover your ears and be made of a material that keeps you warm.
- Neck Gaiter or Face Mask: A neck gaiter is a good idea all winter and face mask is useful for colder days, protecting your face and neck from the chill while allowing for easy breathing.
- Sunglasses in late winter time: Depending on the weather, you might need sunglasses.
For cross-country skiing, the key is to maintain a balance between warmth and mobility, ensuring that you can move freely and comfortably while staying protected from the cold. If you are in doubt, drop us a question!
