Winter Activities Made Better with Merino Wool

Merino wool is made for all seasons, but it comes into its own during Winter. Whether you’re hitting the ski slopes, trekking through frosty trails, or just enjoying a morning coffee outdoors, there’s nothing like the right gear to keep you warm, dry, and comfy. There's nothing that does the job quite like merino wool.

So, grab your layers and get out there with these epic winter activities to make the most of the cold.

1. Hit the Slopes

Skiing or snowboarding? Layer up with a merino wool base layer to wick away sweat while keeping you warm. Because nothing ruins a powder day like being damp and cold.

2. Winter Hiking & Snowshoeing

It's exciting scaling snowy mountains or traversing frosty forests — until your fingers and toes go numb. Keep warm with merino wool socks, gloves, and a beanie to stay toasty while exploring the great outdoors.

3. Après-Ski Unwinding

After carving up the mountain all day, it’s time to kick back and relax. Whether you’re gathered at an alpine lodge, a lively pub, or just enjoying the cool air in your backyard, throw on a merino wool sweater, grab your favorite drink, and soak in the après-ski atmosphere.

4. Cold-Water Dips (for the Brave!)

Feeling bold? Winter swimming is trending, and merino wool base layers will help warm you up post-plunge. Just don’t forget the hot tea afterward.

5. Ice Skating

Whether you're gracefully gliding on ice (or clumsily shuffling), layering up is key. Merino thermals give you freedom to move while keeping the chill out.
