What To Wear Hiking In The Spring - The Wandering Queen

preview

Skip to contentHiking in the Spring is a beautiful time to connect with nature. It’s the time of year when everything outside is changing. After the long, dark winter months, Spring&nbsp;is literally a breath of fresh air. This is why I love to get outside during this time of year. I feel rejuvenated and excited for the new season. Blossoming flowers, cute baby birds, and warmer weather gives me all the Spring feels. However, when I go hiking in the Spring, I like to be as comfortable as possible. So, I have come up with a list of my favorite items I like to wear during this time of year. All these items are my go-to hiking outfits that are comfy, durable, and also look pretty stylish at the same time. Enjoy!Disclosure:&nbsp;This post contains affiliate links.

As always, all opinions are my own.&nbsp;The key to hiking as comfortably as possible is layering! Spring can still bring in some chilly weather, so always make sure to bring a jacket or sweater just in case. If you are cold, put on a layer. If you are hot, take off a layer. When hiking, you don’t want to be too sweaty or too cold. You want to be just right, so layering will help with feeling as comfortable as possible.I am so excited that Athleta is now easily available at REI Co-op! I have been wearing Athleta for years, and I am so glad I can order their cute athletic outfits from my favorite outdoor retailer. As most of you know, I am a sucker for good quality leggings that make me feel and look good. I tried out some new hiking outfits this Spring, and they were perfect for wildflower and sunset chasing. Check out my new favorite outfits below!A tank top is great for those warmer days out in the sun. I am all about feeling cute and comfortable while hiking! I have worn this shirt on serval hikes now and loved how the tank top felt and looked on me. &gt;&gt;&gt;Buy My New Favorite Tank Top HereI love these new cute Athleta Shirts while hiking, especially the Athleta Cloudlight Stratus Tee. It is so soft and comfortable. I also like the colors they come in. The Fabric is pretty stretchy and I like that sweat can travel easily through the fabric. Even though I hiked my first difficult hike for the Spring and I was sweating, I was dry, and felt fabulous at the viewpoint. &gt;&gt;&gt;Buy This Uber Cute Shirt HereI am all about comfort when it comes to hiking. Because of this, leggings are usually my go-to hiking pants! Lately, I am all about my new Athleta&nbsp;Salutation II 7/8 Tight! They are extremely soft and durable. I also like the huge pockets they provide where I can store my phone for easy access to take stunning videos and pictures of the trails. &gt;&gt;&gt;Check Them Out HereJoggers are also another great option to wear while hiking. They are loose-fitting and can feel pretty comfortable, especially on those extra sticky, hot sunny days. I recently went hiking to a nearby trail with the Athleta&nbsp;Trekkie Joggers and admired how they looked on me. I also liked how the fabric resisted any snags when I was sitting on the most unpleasantly&nbsp;jagged rocks. &gt;&gt;&gt;Check Out The Cutest Joggers EverGetting shoes that are specifically made for hiking really helps improve mobility and gripping loose gravel and rocks. This Spring, I hiked with these Arc’teryx Aerios hiking shoes, and I love them! I like how they look, I love how they feel, and I also like that I didn’t need to break them in. I also used them on one of the most well-known steep trails in Washington called “Mount Storm King,” and they worked like a charm. They complimented my Athleta clothing perfectly. &gt;&gt;&gt;Buy These Cute Hiking Shoes HereWearing good socks while hiking can help prevent getting blisters. On long strenuous hikes, I like to wear my Smartwool Hiking Socks. On shorter, easier hikes, I like to wear the Smartwool PhD Run Ultra Light socks.I always carry a backpack so I can carry the ten essentials. Some of the essentials include water, food, extra clothes, a map, and a compass. I have had the REI Co-op Trail 25 Pack for 5 years now, and I love how roomy and lightweight this backpack is! I carry it on many of my adventures. &gt;&gt;&gt;Buy This Cool Backpack HereI don’t always wear a rain jacket when I hike, but I always pack it in my backpack in case it rains. One of the worst feelings in the world is hiking while being soaked, and you know Spring is the time for showers! I have been packing this Rainier Rain jacket lately, and I love how lightweight and comfy it is. &gt;&gt;&gt;Buy REI Co-op Rain Jacket HereEven though it is starting to warm up in the Spring, I still like to bring an insulated jacket. I do this for both safety and comfort reasons. Usually, in mountain regions, it can still be pretty chilly at the higher elevations. When I am at the viewpoint, I sometimes like to put on a jacket to stay warm. The Patagonia Nano Puff has been my go-to jacket for years, and I love that it is made with recycled content. &gt;&gt;&gt;Check Out This Cute Jacket HereSpring season can still be pretty chilly on the trails, so a nice warm sweater is great to have, just in case! I love all of Patagonia’s fleece sweaters because they keep me pretty warm. &gt;&gt;&gt;Check Them Out In Different Colors HereRecently I have been wearing this hat on all my Spring hikes, and I love it because it blocks the sun from my eyes while walking. Plus, hats are a fun accessory to wear for your Instagram Pictures! I like the Brooks Sherpa Hats because they are made for runners. It is uber breathable and lightweight. This hat looked pretty great with my new Athleta clothing. &gt;&gt;&gt;Check Out This Awesome Hat HereSunglasses are part of the ten essentials because they protect you from the harsh sunlight. &gt;&gt;&gt;Check Out These Stylish Glasses HereThanks for reading all about what to wear this Spring when hiking!
