Our tips for a great women's UPF 50+ hiking outfit

Is hiking one of your favorite activities? Whether you're enjoying a 5-kilometers walk or embarking on a three-day desert trek, you'll need an outfit that’s not only perfect for hiking but also effectively protects your skin from the sun’s harmful rays.

Some women choose a long-sleeve sun tee, while others prefer a sun hiking shirt. The key is selecting gear designed for the outdoors, clothing that’s breathable and quick-drying, keeping you comfortable and fresh on the trail. And since hiking can be tough on your attire, opt for sun protective hiking pants that are durable against abrasion and snags.

Whether you're an occasional hiker or part of a Nordic walking club, protecting your head and face from the sun is essential. A good sun hat, lightweight, with a wide brim or a neck flap, makes all the difference.

Also, remember that your hands are highly exposed to UV rays while hiking. UV mittens or gloves are an excellent way to shield them and help prevent dark spots. Prefer a short-sleeve sun tee? Then consider wearing sun arm cuffs to protect your arms.

Hiking: yes, but with proper sun protection

For men who want to hike safely under the sun's dangers, a UPF 50+ hiking outfit is essential. It will help you avoid sunburns and keep you cool during your hikes.

For your top, you have two options: a men's sun protective hiking shirt that is typically ultra light and breathable thanks to technical UPF 50+ fabric and built in ventilation, or a sun sports tee in long or short sleeves that is lightweight and comfortable. In any case, hiking apparel is designed to dry quickly and wick away sweat so you can enjoy your activity in maximum comfort.

Next, sun protective hiking pants are indispensable. They are durable against abrasion and designed with stretch. Some sun hiking pants are even convertible so you can switch to shorts in extreme heat.

Since your head is highly exposed to the sun during a hike, protecting it is a must. Choose a lightweight, breathable hat whether it is a sun hat, bucket hat or uv protective cap to shield you from harmful rays.

Finally, do not forget to protect your extremities. Shield your hands with UV mittens or UV gloves. If you prefer a short sleeve sun tee, UV arm cuffs can safeguard your arms and forearms. A sun protective bandana can also protect your neck from the sun while keeping you warm in cooler, shaded areas.

Frequently asked questions

Why wear UPF 50+ clothing for hiking?

During a hike, your sun exposure is often prolonged and even more intense at higher altitudes where UV rays are stronger. UPF 50+ clothing offers continuous sun protection for your skin without the need to constantly reapply sunscreen on covered areas. Made from lightweight, breathable materials, this gear keeps you comfortable while moving.

Are sun protective hiking clothes suitable for all seasons?

Absolutely. Sun protective hiking clothes are designed to be lightweight and breathable. They work perfectly in spring and summer because they effectively wick away sweat while protecting you from strong UV rays. When temperatures drop in fall and winter, you can layer them to keep protecting your skin from the sun while staying warm.

When hiking, do I still need to wear sunscreen if I am wearing UV protective clothing?

UV protective clothing certified UPF 50+, whether designed for hiking or not, provides a very high level of sun protection for your skin. Therefore, you do not need to apply sunscreen on areas covered by UV protective clothing or accessories. However, it is important to protect any uncovered areas with sunscreen (preferably SPF 50 and effective against both UVB and UVA), applied regularly and in sufficient quantity.
