A pair of good, sturdy wellies on your feet makes all the difference on those wet or muddy spring walks and when the Greater Manchester rain hits hard, we say go jump in puddles!
Keeping your toes dry in wellies is just one way to prepare for wet weather walking. All you really need is the right clothing and you’ll be well protected from the elements. It sounds expensive but with some good shopping about, for less than £50 you can kit yourself out with clothing which will last you for years:
Just avoid heavy denim or sweatpants as they will soak the water up. A pair of sweat-wicking leggings or joggers (or even shorts!) are best for keeping the rain at bay and are fast drying.
Getting outdoors is fantastic for physical and mental wellbeing, so don’t let the weather keep you indoors. We love this poem about wet weather walks: https://gmwalking.co.uk/walking-whatever-the-weather-a-poem/
Just a reminder about why walking is great:
Remember: A good stroll is good for your Northern soul. Because that’s the Greater Manchester way.
