While the weather is beautiful and pleasant because of the drizzling rains, we are sitting on our cosy couch, breathing in the smell of freshly wet soil, and sipping a cup of chai—We’re daydreaming of an adventurous day out! Monsoon is the time to head for a hike, go for a trek, explore the unknown, discover hidden waterfalls, and just live in the moment.
If you’re planning for a monsoon trek too, we have all the essentials needed to enjoy your escapade:
1. Wind-Resistant Jacket
A heavy-duty windcheater that is wind-resistant and waterproof is the key essential for your trek. This utilitarian-chic coverup is movement-friendly and is perfect for such an activity.
2. Quick-Dry Leggings
Comfortable leggings that dry quickly are your best bet for rainy days. Style it with a comfy tank top or graphic tee for a sporty look.
3. Trekking Shoes
A sturdy pair of shoes is a must for an adventurous day out. Trekking boots or sporty trainers have grips on their soles that will keep you from slipping while climbing.
4. Waterproof Backpack
Hold all your trekking essentials like a water bottle, protein bars, camera and other items in one bag. It also keeps your hands free to manoeuvre through a tricky trail.
5. Bandana Scarf
A bandana comes in handy for a number of reasons. It looks fashionable when draped around the neck and also prevents water getting inside your windcheater. Alternatively, you can wear it as a headband to tame flyaways.
6. Waterproof Makeup
Who said you can’t look pretty while being outdoorsy? Keep it simple with a waterproof mascara and eyeliner, as well as a natural lip tint.
