Go Outdoors – Gifts for Walkers – Advertisement Feature
We’ve got some BRILLIANT ideas for gifts for walkers and hikers to really help them enjoy outdoor exercise even more!
Getting outdoor exercise is even more important than ever now and something we’re really enjoying getting into.
It’s not only a brilliant way to get fit but it’s also a great boost to happiness and wellbeing to spend time outdoors, amongst nature.
And with Christmas just a few weeks away we’ve got some great walking gifts and walking gadget ideas that would be the perfect present for walkers.
It feels good to pull on your walking boots and go outdoors for a few hours. It’s a really effective mood booster!
Outdoor Exercise
I think after this year, in our family anyway we’ve all had a bit of a reset, just a look at how we spend our time, re-assess what’s important in life and what things make us feel good.
And spending more time outside and outdoor exercise has really been a great thing for us as a family. I mean not only is it pretty much free to do, there’s a whole lot of healthy benefits thrown in the mix too!
Gifts for walkers
Walking gifts that any rambler or ‘want to be hiker’ would just love!
- Mens walking boots – a pair of mens waterproof walking boots will make all that time outdoors a whole lot more comfortable
- Down coat – keep the chill off in a light weight down coat, perfect for rambling and hiking.
- Waterproof coat – if there’s one thing every walker in the UK needs it’s a waterproof coat, there will be lots of walking in the rain!
- Gillet or fleece – add an extra layer of warmth with a cosy gillet or fleece under your coat.
- Leatherman multi tool pen knife – a perfect gift for ramblers or for any serious walker or hiker – super useful if you like to camp too.
- Rucksack – a rucksack makes a great gift ideas for walkers, they can pack up a picnic, snacks and drinks and head out for hours.
- Gloves – keep the chill off and gift your favourite outdoor lover a pair of warm and cosy gloves.
- Double layer socks – these are a great gift idea for ramblers, they’ll make boots feel a whole lot more comfortable.
- Head torch – a brilliant walking present, especially for going camping, these are super useful to have
- Folding chair – now I think this is a BRILLIANT gift for walkers and hikers, when I’ve walked to somewhere really nice I like to throw up a chair and sit down and sip a flask of tea… whilst I take in the view.
- Water bottle or flask – this is a really good present for walkers, it’s always handy to take water (and cups of tea) out walking.
- First aid kit – mini travel first aid kits are really handy to keep in rucksacks when out and about, especially when walking with the kids, they’re a thoughtful gift for outdoor lovers!

Walking Gifts
Getting outdoor exercise is a great thing and really boosts mood, positivity and wellbeing as does being kind.
And that’s why we’re super happy that Go Outdoors gifted us a pair of mens waterproof walking boots to give to an amazing local charity The Brick
