Hiking with dogs in Aosta Valley

In summer, it’s great to head up the mountain with your dog, and we’re sure that they’ll love it as much as you. There are plenty of open pastures and lakes for them to dive into! However, bear in mind that there are certain restrictions in place in the mountain parks which vary according to the time of year.
A quick overview of where your dogs are allowed to go:

Our Top 7 Hiking Tips in Aosta Valley:

trekking with dogs in aosta valley, routes and guides

1. Maintain your dog’s energy levels. Don’t give your dog a big meal in the morning of your hike to ensure they have enough time to digest.

2. Pick up after your dog – is important hiking etiquette. Dog excrement contains harmful levels of bacteria that can harm and disrupt local wildlife, native habitats and groundwater supplies.

3. Remember to make sure you stop for water breaks frequently. When you need a drink, chances are your dog will too so make sure you carry enough fresh water for you and your dog

4. Food. Carry nutritious snacks for your dog and offer them regularly to keep your dog’s energy level high.

5. Dog clothing. Putting an argyle sweater on your dog so he looks fancy on the golf course is not what we’re talking about. If you have a shorthaired dog or a dog that spends the majority of their time indoors, they could benefit from an extra layer against wet and cold conditions.

6. Dog First Aid Supplies: Pack a first aid kit especially for your dog or add some dog-specific supplies (multi-tool with tweezers, tick removal tool (also useful for any ticks you find on yourself!).

7. Collar with a tag that has your telephone number on it in case you get separated.

If an activity or attraction that you would like to visit doesn’t cater for dogs but you don’t want to miss out – why not book a sitter to care for your dog while you are out? Ask Tania for details  +39 3358376414
