Winter holiday packing list – What is the best winter clothing?
What is the best winter clothing for Canada in winter? We wanted to create a winter vacation packing list before we embarked on the trip. What do you use there as protection against the cold? What does perfect winter clothing look like? We asked ourselves these questions as soon as it became clear that we Winterlude Festival in Ottawa would visit. It's not that easy at all suitcase to pack properly for such Travel. Because we hardly know temperatures of -33 ° C here. Winterlude doesn't get in every year Ottawa so icy. When we were there, we were told that these degrees of cold were exceptional. This winter holiday packing list has proven itself for us.
What does perfect winter clothing look like? – Discover it in our winter holiday packing list
First of all, you have to be aware that on the one hand, you are doing a lot outdoors, and thus in the freezing cold. Unlike skiing or other outdoor winter activities, Winterlude offers you the opportunity to visit cafes, restaurants, Hotels or even to warm it up again in specially constructed warming tents. On the one hand, the winter cold in Ottawa can be endured well. On the other hand, however, this also means that you constantly go from the freezing cold outside to overheated rooms. That's why we've put together our winter holiday packing list so that you're protected from the extreme cold but also stay comfortably warm indoors. We've never spent so much time putting on and taking off our winter clothes on any trip. Therefore one thing is absolutely important:
Packing list for winter holidays – according to the onion principle
The best protection against the cold in winter: hand, body and foot warmers
At -33 ° C, this is usually only enough for a few minutes. But inventive, as the Canadians are, there's also a solution. Do you already know hand warmer that you put in the gloves? These keep you warm for up to eight hours. Although we were not eight hours straight at these lows outside on the way. But the time we spent outdoors in Canada during the winter kept our hands warm. There are, for example, the rechargeable hand warmers *that exist in all forms and with practical additional functions. Practical are these too hand warmers *, These are simply put in the gloves and immediately have warm hands for several hours, no matter how cold it is outside. They have done us excellent service in the icy temperatures during the winter lapse in Ottawa.

Thermal underwear for extreme cold and winter pants are part of winter clothing
The more layers you wear on top of your winter clothing for Canada, the warmer you get. Outdoors! But also in the overheated rooms. We therefore considered it that we wool underwear carried. Also remember to protect your legs with long underpants * under warm winter pants *. If two layers are not enough, you can always add another one. This ensures that winter clothing protects you twice (or three times) against the cold on your legs outdoors. So the biting wind can't harm you so quickly. They also warm in cool offices and unheated hallways and corridors.

I can wear leggings underneath if it gets icy outside. And best of all, it looks chic too. So if you are looking for warm clothing for indoors and outdoors this winter, knitted trousers are a good choice.

If we were still too cold on the way, we went to cafés, restaurants or hotel lobbies where we could warm ourselves up again.

We have ours just as quickly winter jacket dressed again for extreme cold.

Petar in Winter Clothes in Winter in Canada - Winter Vacation Packing List
How are Canada winter temperatures and what do you use as protection against the cold?
It's hard to say in general. Canada is the largest country on earth and includes many climate zones. They are usually colder than here. There are no mountain ranges that run from east to west in Canada. They do not keep out the temperatures and winds from the north. Therefore, the wind can contribute to making the perceived temperatures feel colder than they actually are through the wind chill factor. In addition, they often fluctuate greatly from year to year. For example, we had extreme cold during our stay in Ottawa at the Winterlude. It doesn't have to be like this every year. It is best to check the temperatures before you leave and pack your winter clothing for your winter vacation in Canada using our winter vacation packing list. Winter clothing in Canada must correspond to different climate zones. This is the best protection against the cold.

But that was good. Because the conditions on the Rideau Canal were perfect for making the ice rink out of it. After all, that's what the Winterlude Festival is known for. As it turned out, however, it was a different kind of cold than what we know in Central Europe. Dry but icy. When the wind blows, the wind chill factor comes into play. This ensures that the icy cold is extremely noticeable. Therefore, it is important to know beforehand what is the best way to protect yourself from the cold in the Canadian winter. Which winter clothing is the best. This winter vacation packing list will also help with other activities included in Canada in winter possible are. These tips are just as interesting for skiers as for trips to regions with extreme cold.

I swear on the Onellock, but unfortunately it does not help against cold feet. Especially if you are not constantly on the move. The tip with the Fußwärmern I think so great, did not know the yet, I'll give it a try.
Dear Antje,
Feet and hands are always the weak points when it's really cold. Since the foot and hand warmers are really great.
Best regards,
Monika
Being outside in winter is our job. We have a lot of experience with the Scandinavian winter, and sometimes it gets zapfig. From our experience, it is important that the upper and lower body ends are well warmed. So cap and headband on the head, you can also pull on each other well and then for warm feet, for example, through thick socks and thermal soles in the shoes (which should have thick soles). Otherwise, the onion principle is perfect and I (female) find a kidney warmer really great!
Many greetings, Silke & Thomas from Outdoor-Hochgenuss
Dear Silke, dear Thomas,
I can well imagine that it will be cold in the Scandinavian winter. These are similar latitudes as in Canada. How are the temperatures there in winter?
Best regards,
Monika
Dear Monika,
The onion principle in clothing actually always makes sense, even if it's not that cold. I always use that with myself and with my son when we're on the road. Especially when traveling, it is extremely convenient because you are always dressed properly in changing places with changing temperatures.
Best regards,
Angela
Dear Angela,
It also has the advantage that you do not necessarily have to take the thickest sweater and the suitcase is not already filled with a garment.
Best regards,
Monika
Dear Monika,
Thanks for the great tips, although I have already known most of course. What we have never tested before are the foot warmers. How is your experience? Do not you get extremely cold feet when the heat goes out?

Charnette
Dear Charnette,
we loved the foot and hand warmers. Without them, we would have had half as much fun on this trip. But that's how they really kept our feet, toes and hands warm. And even after that there were no cold feet. I would recommend to anyone who has cold feet problems in winter.
Greetings,
Monika
Since we live a little higher, extreme minus temperatures are not unknown to us. Unfortunately, the damp cold climate predominates here, which is much more disgusting than the dry cold.
Dear Alex,
you're right. The dry cold of Canada is quite good to endure, if you dress warm. We had great luck with the weather during our visit to Winterlude. Throughout our stay in Ottawa, the sun was shining from the deep blue sky. We gladly went exploring the Winter Wonderland in the Canadian capital.
