People in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland are really sweating right now. Therefore, here are 7 cool tips for hot days. It probably doesn't look any better in other countries. It's finally proper summer. As is only natural, the weather is being complained about again. Whether it's too hot, too cold, too wet, too cloudy, too humid, or pleasant summery temperatures in March, the weather either prevents us from doing something outdoors or the weather is not normal for this time of year. Tsk... pleasant, warm spring temperatures. That's never happened before! November a great month for hiking with mild temperatures, who wouldn't want that. Am I right? =) nothing for ungood, as the Anglo-Saxon says.<\/p>\n

For this reason, I have 7 cool tips for hot days here for you:<\/p>\n

Make sure you have at least one day off, starting now!<\/h5>\n

\"day<\/p>\n

The certainly most important point, and therefore the first point, is that you naturally need to have the day off. If you are not currently working in cable car construction or as a hut warden, then in order to be able to work through the following points, you should ask your boss for understanding that he gets to sweat alone at the company today. Alternatively, you could invite him to come along with you, in which case one or the other points will be dropped or will need to be\/should be completely restructured.<\/p>\n

Find the nearest chairlift or gondola<\/h5>\n

\"20150716_102246\"<\/p>\n

Of course, this is not equally easy or difficult for all of you and depends heavily on where you live. If it's more than 15 minutes or an hour, you should plan for more vacation and free time accordingly. You might even need to plan an extra day for arrival and another for departure. This really depends on which part of Germany you live in. For people from Austria and Switzerland, this will be less of a problem.<\/p>\n

Never descend below 2000 m above sea level.<\/h5>\n

\"20150716_113158\"<\/p>\n

Once you've found a gondola, you need to check how high it takes you. Only then can you finally define your destination. Today I was in Flims in Graub\u00fcnden and was taken up to 2700 m by means of two chairlifts and a gondola. You should be at least approx. 2000 m high, otherwise it can still be relatively warm. Just quickly going up to 1500 m doesn't really help much with the current temperatures. It will still be around 28 degrees and you will sweat again with every little exertion. Goal not reached.<\/p>\n

Looking for a place that still has snow and is perhaps around 18 degrees Celsius.<\/h5>\n

\"20150716_112148\"<\/p>\n

Once you've reached the summit, the first thing you should do is find a spot still covered in snow. You won't have any trouble finding one at these altitudes, even in July. This slice of paradise will cool you down in seconds. Now you can move on to the next point completely relaxed and chilled.<\/p>\n

Enjoy the view and switch off. Now.<\/h5>\n

\"20150716_112030\"<\/p>\n

For this point, it's best to find a comfortable, large rock, or perhaps there's even a bench nearby. Be careful in Switzerland if you're looking for a bank. There are both types of banks equally here \ud83d\ude09 In the summer, most benches are also... well, banks, so the difference isn't immediately apparent.<\/p>\n

Have you found a comfortable seat, enjoy the beautiful view <\/a>and the nice cool air and thinks of your work colleagues who now have to do your work. \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n

Be active<\/h5>\n

\"20150716_113644\"<\/p>\n

But you should also get some exercise now. In the valley, that doesn't seem possible at the moment, as temperatures around 30 degrees Celsius still often prevail in the evening. For many people, including myself, that's simply too warm to exercise. So, the place where you are now is ideal for a short hiking tour. It doesn't have to be much, after all, at these temperatures, everyone understands if you're not doing much sports right now.<\/p>\n

And that's naturally better for your conscience too. Because after all, you've moved in a meaningful way while the others are working. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Pure relaxation<\/h5>\n

\"20150716_123108\"<\/p>\n

Once you've completed your training, you've of course earned some more relaxation. Since the weather is nice, you should head to the next restaurant or hut and treat yourself to a coffee there. I had a piece of cake with mine and spent some time reading there. That's a great way to relax while sitting in a cool breeze.<\/p>\n

I hope I was able to give you some valuable tips here. Perhaps it will really motivate one or the other of you to spend your summer vacation in the mountains instead of on the Canaries or Balearic Islands. Beware of prejudice! Hehe...<\/p>\n

After all, I would have boosted Swiss and Austrian tourism with my rather amusing guidebook, which is certainly useful somewhere. Of course, I should also mention the Southern Germany region here, as the German Alps are also absolutely gorgeous and the same temperature laws apply there. *g*<\/p>\n

If you'd like, you can also tell me how you manage to keep a cool head in these temperatures.<\/p>\n

To a beautiful summer!<\/p>\n
