Hiking Capes

Hiking in the rain or through water can be great fun if you have a comfy rain cape with you.

These capes are thin and lightweight. Easy to wear anywhere, small and light to keep one in your pack at all times in case of a sudden downpour.

It is beautifully relaxing to sit in the rain inside your cosy cape and listen to the raindrops as they fall onto the fabric, form little puddles and then roll off.

Hiking Capes Replace Cagoules

Cagoules are long pullover garments with a short front zip or no zip. Modern hiking or cycling capes with long sleeves have replaced cagoules to some extend. They have a wider cut than cagoules to fit over bicycle handlebars or cover a backpack.

Hiking Cape Care

Whenever we come back from a wet hiking adventure, we always wear all our clothes under the shower to wash out dirt and mud. This method works better than had wash in a tub and is much more fun than you might think. Then we hang them up to dry before we stow them in our hiking pack ready for another wet adventure.
