Going Hiking?

Bring some snacks...these snacks are not only full of energy, but are also easy to pack along.
  • Trail mix - full of carbohydrates and protein, this snack can keep you energized for a long time

  • Granola bars - individually wrapped and portable, they also provide carbohydrates for quick energy

  • Beef jerky - a great source of protein which can help build and repair muscles after exercise




Trails Mixes

Morning Mix

Craisins, Dried apples, Dried pineapples, Banana chips, Peanuts

Monkey Mix

Dried banana chips, Dried papaya, Dried mango, Sliced almonds, Coconut

Or make your own mixture of nuts, seeds and dried fruit.




Staying hydrated is especially important. Water is the best option! Remember to bring at least 1 quart of water per person for a day hike. For extended hikes, try sports drinks with electrolytes to replace those lost through sweat. Remember that sports drinks and energy drinks are different. Avoid the energy drinks; they just contain carbohydrates and caffeine.

Also remember, to find great information on hiking and trails for kids in St. George and the Southern Utah area, go to www.StGeorge4Kids.com or visit our National Parks pages for hiking and trail information for kids and families.
