Despite the rain and wind, there's no time like autumn to get outside and reap the benefits of hiking. But as we layer up in thermals, hoodies, and waterproof hiking trousers, Helen Skelton has shown us that we can still incorporate fun and colour into our hiking outfits while also keeping things practical.
