Warm winter hikes with MAUL
Autumn is considered the peak season for hiking, but winter also has many advantages. Snow-covered landscapes and the tranquillity of the cold months can be just as enticing as golden leaves. The important thing is to dress properly for winter walks. And that's where MAUL products come in.
The perfect outfit for winter hikes
In winter it can get really chilly, so warm clothing is an absolute must for outdoor activities. However, it is not uncommon to sweat when hiking, which in turn requires breathability. This means that the perfect outfit for winter hiking must fulfil several functions at once.
The Bavarian outdoor brand MAUL has carefully considered all this and developed clothing that keeps you warm, but at the same time guarantees sufficient freedom of movement and ventilation. To achieve this, the various trousers, jackets and fleece products work together to ensure a balanced body climate.

Double jackets for double comfort
No winter hike without a suitable jacket! The outermost layer of clothing has to perform well, as it acts as a protective shield against wind and weather. Breathability, a sufficiently high water column and robust materials are therefore basic requirements for a good winter jacket. The MAUL models Miltenberg for women and Fürstenfeld II for men promise exactly that.
The best time for the Megatex 3-in-1 trekking jackets Fürstenfeld II and Miltenberg is from September to April. Specially designed for winter weather, the models have a zip-out or zip-in fleece jacket inside that allows you to adapt to different temperatures. The outer layer is weatherproof and equipped with three waterproof zipped pockets. Especially important: the jackets are highly breathable and are considered completely waterproof and windproof. This makes the Miltenberg and Fürstenfeld II suitable for both short walks and longer tours.

The matching trousers
A proper outfit for winter hiking includes weatherproof trousers that provide sufficient protection. Especially when hiking through snow, they need to guarantee warmth and keep the wet out.
Softshell trousers are particularly practical for this use. One example is the Klosters II model for women or the Nebelhorn II model for men. Both are heat-insulating and quick-drying and of course water-repellent. A special highlight is the good fit of the trousers with pre-shaped knee sections for maximum freedom of movement.
Another option for winter hikes are also the outdoor trousers with Megaliner Sarek II for women and Wallis for men. The Megatex Megaliner functional material is particularly robust and provides excellent protection against wind, snow and rain. This makes the trousers reliable companions on tours where the weather is uncomfortable.
The extra layer of warmth with fleece
Fleece jackets are not so popular with hikers for nothing. While they are often sufficient on their own in autumn, they are a warming second layer in the cold winter months.
At MAUL you will find a wide range of different models, such as the Brixen 2.0 for women or the Oberstdorf II knitted fleece jacket for men.
The Brixen 2.0 impresses above all with its excellent fit and its breathable and insulating properties. For the same reasons, the men's model Oberstdorf II is also one of the classics among the MAUL fleece jackets. Both Brixen 2.0 and Oberstdorf II also offer practical pockets as well as hours of wearing comfort.
